Under Construction: International Drive Booster Pump Station

Construction of upgrades and improvements to the International Drive Booster Pump Station is being financed by the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF).  The DWSRF program is administered by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC) with joint funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the State of South Carolina. 

The project includes the construction of a booster pump station located west of International Drive, approximately 2.5 miles north of the intersection of International Drive and Highway 31.  The International Drive booster pump station will be located between the existing Perry Road pump station and the North booster pump station.  These upgrades will increase the pressure and capacity of the North booster pump station, and enhance the security and pressure for fire protection in this portion of the Bull Creek water system.  These upgrades will benefit the water supply to the northeast portions of Horry County, including Carolina Forest, North Myrtle Beach, and Little River.  DWSRF programs operate around the county to provide states and communities the resources necessary to maintain and improve the infrastructure that protects our valuable water resources.
