project lands and water within the project boundary on Lake Murray for 
the construction of a raw water intake facility. The raw water intake 
facility would withdraw up to 5.5 million gallons of water per day for 
public drinking water and would consist of a 12-foot long by 8-foot 
wide platform with a 25-foot long by 4-foot wide gangway, which would 
be connected to a 12-foot long by 16-foot wide floating dock. The 
floating intake structure would include a fabricated intake float and 
gangway system. The intake structure would be screened and have a 
maximum approach velocity of 0.31 feet per second. The intake siphon 
would be equipped with an air release valve and check valve, and 
connect to the raw water pump station. The raw water pump station would 
be constructed of concrete and have a stucco finish, resembling a 
residential structure. The raw water line would leave the project 
boundary and follow road right of ways to an existing water treatment 
plant. In order to provide the Town of Batesburg-Leesville access to 
the raw water intake facility for construction, operation and
