DHEC is Restructuring

On July 1, 2024, the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) becomes two separate agencies — the South Carolina Departments of Environmental Services (SCDES) and Public Health (DPH). Additionally, DHEC's retail food program and milk and dairy lab will merge with the South Carolina Department of Agriculture. See our DHEC Restructuring page to learn more.
