In 1997, we represented 6 groups who were sued by a bankrupt developer who was seeking to overturn part of a 1979 settlement of a suit over the original Wando River port terminal in Mt. Pleasant, Charleston County. We successfully negotiated another settlement that obtained conservation easements along a large amount of waterfront along Wando River and one of its tributaries, Rat Hall Creek.
We are now involved in negotiations on behalf of the six organizations, to obtain an additional conservation easement on other nearby property, and to place limits on dock construction in the area.
