Wastewater Plant Information
George R. Vereen North Strand Regional
The George R. Vereen North Strand Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (Vereen Plant) is located in the Wampee community south of Little River. The new 7 million gallon per day plant uses a modern treatment process to achieve a very high level of treated effluent to protect the Carolina Bays and the Intracoastal Waterway.
The new plant became operational in late 2003. This plant serves the Wampee, Little River and Barefoot Resort areas along with a portion of the City of North Myrtle Beach.
The biological solids that are generated during the treatment process are treated to Class A standards through composting to provide the most beneficial reusable product. The composted material is utilized as crop fertilizer at several of the SCDHEC approved Authority farms.
