Santee Cooper will design and permit the project’s marine elements, including the docks and breakwater. Berkeley County Engineering will permit the design plans in cooperation with the Town of Moncks Corner and S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control. Berkeley County Roads and Bridges will perform all work on the land/parking lot. The proposed site plan for land use went before the Town of Moncks Corner Board of Zoning Appeals on July 6 and was unanimously approved.
Total cost of the project is approximately $6.5 million and is being funded from a 75-percent matching grant from the State, as well as State water recreation funds and Berkeley County Accommodations Fee. Santee Cooper has provided a long-term gratis lease to Berkeley County for the project.
This project is expected to be complete by Fall of 2022.
