About this file

This is a historical collection data report for the South Carolina Department of Agriculture (SCDA) Waste Pesticide Recovery Collection Program, documenting a five-year collection period from March 2019 through October 2024. The program conducted waste pesticide collection events across multiple South Carolina cities, including York, Lexington, Columbia, St. Matthews, Anderson, Gaffney, and others, with collection locations at facilities such as county hazardous waste sites, landfills, schools, and office drop-off points. Over the five-year period, the program collected a total of 254,719 pounds of waste pesticides through 46 documented collection events. Collection volumes varied significantly by year, ranging from 9,017 pounds in 2024 (partial year data through October) to 89,301 pounds in 2022, with 2023 recording 78,513 pounds, 2020 recording 38,650 pounds, and 2019 recording 27,180 pounds. Collection events were categorized as regular collections, hazardous household waste (HHW) events, laboratory waste collections, and drop-off program activities.

The data indicates that collection efforts were distributed across urban and rural areas throughout South Carolina, with York County emerging as a frequent collection location with multiple events annually. Notably, certain collection events substantially exceeded others in volume, such as the April 2023 Bishopville collection (38,172 pounds) and the August 2022 Kingstree collection (24,026 pounds). Some collection events fell below established thresholds for full processing. The program's collection infrastructure included partnerships with county facilities and educational institutions, demonstrating a statewide approach to pesticide waste management. The variability in collection volumes and frequency suggests seasonal patterns and site-specific factors influencing program participation and waste availability.
