About Kershaw County — What Affects Your Septic System

Elgin is a growing community straddling the Kershaw and Richland county line, known for its excellent schools and family-friendly neighborhoods in the Sandhills area. The community is just minutes from Sesquicentennial State Park, a 1,419-acre park featuring a 30-acre lake, hiking trails, and one of the best examples of Sandhills ecology in the state. Elgin has become one of the most sought-after addresses in the greater Columbia area.

Local Geography

Kershaw County Rivers, Watersheds, and Flood Zones

The Wateree River, formed by the confluence of the Catawba River and several tributaries, flows south through Kershaw County past Camden and is impounded to form Lake Wateree in the county's northern section. The Lynches River also touches the county's eastern edge, and numerous smaller creeks including Twenty-Five Mile Creek drain the interior. The Wateree River floodplain is a major FEMA-designated flood zone with deep alluvial soils that are unsuitable for conventional septic systems, and the lake itself creates elevated groundwater conditions in surrounding areas that can affect drain field performance.

Common Issues

Rapid Drainage and Groundwater Risk in Kershaw County

The Kershaw soil series — named for this county — consists of excessively drained coarse sands with very rapid permeability. While this eliminates surface ponding, septic effluent moves through these soils so quickly that harmful bacteria, viruses, and nitrates can reach groundwater before being naturally filtered. This is a particular concern for rural properties relying on private wells, where the same aquifer receiving septic discharge serves as the drinking water source.
