Approximately 50 people attended the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ (Corps) Public Information Workshop held at the Citadel Alumni Center on August 25, 2004.

The purpose of this workshop was to share information related to the progress of the EIS with the public. Throughout the meeting, attendees were able to have their questions answered by experts that worked in specific areas of study related to the “scope” of the draft EIS. These areas of study included, Air Quality, Water Quality, Transportation, Site Contamination, Natural Resources, and Human Environment. There was also Corps staff available to discuss the screening process that led to the identification of the Project Alternatives that will be receiving a detailed evaluation in the draft EIS. Information Handouts distributed at the workshop are available for downloading on the project website (click here).

During the workshop, the Corps requested public feedback on specific issues of concern and the EIS process. Input from the public will be received by the Corps throughout the development of the EIS. Methods by which the public can submit their feedback include the website’s feedback form, the hotline (843-971-7970), and letters written to the Project Manager, Nathaniel I. Ball, at:

Additional public information workshops and meetings will be held throughout the EIS process on an “as needed” basis. To be alerted of an upcoming workshop and/or meeting, please fill out the notice registration form (click here).
