About this map

Augusta and Columbia anchor this regional overview of the South Carolina and Georgia borderlands, a landscape defined by the convergence of the Savannah River and the sprawling waters of Lake Marion and Lake Moultrie. The mid-century footprint of the Savannah River Plant (Atomic Energy Commission) occupies a massive tract south of Aiken, signaling the era's Cold War industrial expansion. To the northeast, the Fort Jackson Military Reservation and Shaw Air Force Base further emphasize the significant federal and military presence in the region.
