That map shows a nuclear facility in extreme NW SC. That’s the lake and nuke facility that covered our 550 acre farm in the mountains. It was , at the time, the largest nuclear power facility east of the Mississippi. It still might be. Scattered my dear old dad’s ashes 150 down on his old front door steps. Mountain land up there was virtually worthless back then. Flooded the valley, brought in a ton of PHD scientists to keep the reactors putt putting along. Land then jumped to a million bucks an acre anywhere near the lake. Damn at the memories there….

It was for the best though in the long run.
