You may have noticed some white stakes in the marsh that can be seen from the bridge on Seabrook Island Road as you look toward Oyster Catcher. This is the alignment for the drainage channel that will be excavated in the marsh to promote positive drainage from the end of the stormwater pipe to the tidal channel. The alignment can be seen in the aerial image below.

This channel existed when the stormwater piping was originally installed, but gradually filled in over time. This is a maintenance project to ensure that stormwater on Oyster Catcher can drain effectively after a rain event. It is scheduled to be completed in early 2026.
