Columbia, South CarolinaSuperfund sites in South Carolina

The Royster Guano Superfund site is a Superfund site located near a former fertilizer factory in Columbia, South Carolina. From 1902 to c. 1935, lead and arsenic associated with superphosphate fertilizer production accumulated in a pond north of the factory. After the factory closed, the pond was drained and developed as the Edisto Court neighborhood. In 2012, contamination was discovered and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) carried out removal of contaminated soils from residential properties.
