1964 Map of Girard NW

About this map

The Savannah River Plant dominates this South Carolina landscape, reflecting the mid-century industrial and military development of the region. Bordered by the Savannah River at the Georgia state line, the area is defined by a dense network of hydrologic features including Upper Three Runs and Fourmile Branch. The map reveals the specialized infrastructure required for this massive energy complex, including the U S Government Railroad and various Water Tanks and substations. This 1964 survey, with 1981 photorevisions, documents the transformation of former rural tracts into a highly managed industrial zone. The southern portion of the quadrangle shows the river's winding path where Barnwell and Burke counties meet, while the interior remains a restricted zone where natural drainages like Steel Creek and Indian Grave Branch flow through a landscape of controlled utility and government oversight.
