Availability Assessment

An update of the State Water Plan is underway in South Carolina. The purpose of the State Water Plan is to develop a water resources policy for South Carolina. A significant portion of the State Water Plan update is to include stakeholders into the planning process. Clemson University continues to facilitate the stakeholder engagement components of the steps to an updated water plan. This research is pertinent to the Groundwater Availability Assessment phase of the State Water Planning process. Overall, stakeholders were interested in all identified groundwater areas of interest in South Carolina. Additionally, they intended to be involved in the entire stakeholder process for groundwater and became more informed on the Groundwater Availability Assessment. Stakeholders agreed that groundwater modeling provided useful information for users in the state and thought the Groundwater Availability Assessment was important for water resources management. Nuances in stakeholder types and registered or permitted users versus nonregistered or nonpermitted users provide important details beyond general results. Moving forward, there are some more mixed results of the stakeholder engagement meetings that are important for planning and decision-making. The groundwater assessment meeting results had general agreement about the appropriateness of the scope, but had less certainty than other questions. Stakeholders generally identified the need for the allocation of additional resources for the planning process. Additionally, mixed results highlight the differences surrounding perceptions of the need for statewide permitting of groundwater resources. This exploratory research is important to water management in South Carolina because it assesses buy-in from those interested in or affected by water resource recommendations forthcoming at the end of the State Water Plan update.

Genetically alcohol deficient deer mice (ADHN/ADHN) (obtained from the Peromyscus Genetic Stock Center, Univ. of South Carolina) lack hepatic cytosolic alcohol dehydrogenase. In order to determine if these deer mice would provide a model system for an ultrastructural study of the effects of ethanol on hepatocyte organelles, 75 micrographs of ADH+ adult male deer mice (n=5) were compared with 75 micrographs of ADH− adult male deer mice (n=5). A morphometric analysis of mitochondrial and peroxisomal parameters was undertaken.The livers were perfused with 0.1M HEPES buffer followed by 0.25% glutaraldehyde and 2% sucrose in 0.1M HEPES buffer (4C), removed, weighed and fixed by immersion in 2.5% glutaraldehyde in 0.1M HEPES buffer, pH 7.4, followed by a 3,3’ diaminobenzidine (DAB) incubation, postfixation with 2% OsO4, en bloc staining with 1% uranyl acetate in 0.025M maleate-NaOH buffer, dehydrated, embedded in Poly/Bed 812-BDMA epon resin, sectioned and poststained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate. Photographs were taken on a Zeiss EM-10 transmission electron microscope, scanned with a Howtek personal color scanner, analyzed with OPTIMAS 4.02 software on a Gateway2000 4DX2-66V personal computer and stored in Excel 4.0.
