Charleston area rivers are well known for their colonial plantation sites and old water borne trade routes, which provide the diving artifact hunter with pottery, vintage antique bottles, plenty of 1 to 10 million year old fossilized shark teeth and bones.

Arthur Ravenel, Jr., Bridge over Cooper River Neither of the bridges had emergency lanes, and the Pearman bridge had no median between the northbound and southbound lanes because of its reversible lane, and it was not until 2002 when flexible barriers were added to the Pearman bridge to prevent head-on collisions. Rivers, and the limited bridge clearance excluded the access of ships that would otherwise be beneficial to the economy of South Carolina. Raising financial support for a new eight-lane bridge over the Cooper River was a struggle 20 years in the making, prolonged by the state's insistence that it could not afford such a bridge and by Charleston's reluctance to provide any funds for the project. mysite.verizon.net /vzer4lo3/id16.html   (801 words)

American Rivers: Santee River "Most Endangered" With river flows significantly reduced, much of the rich, flooded bottomland forests of the Santee River basin are transforming into an ordinary forest of oaks and sycamores, and many of the river’s back channels have dried up.

Following the Santee Cooper utility, Duke Power, SC Electric and Gas, Progress Energy, and Alcoa are slated to re-license 18 more dams affecting rivers throughout the state. www.americanrivers.org /site/News2?abbr=AMR_&page=NewsArticle&id=7199   (775 words)
