Pamplico Defense League Florence CountySouth Carolina

The Pamplico Defense League was formed to fight a pipeline known as the River Neck to Kingsburg and also known as the Pamplico Pipeline. The proposed pipeline not only crosses several tributaries to the Pee Dee River, it also passes through heirs’ property belonging to the descendants of former slavers and other working-class residents.

BREDL Executive Director, and Pamplico native, Kathy Andrews says, “Dominion Energy is targeting this area, filled with heirs property and working-class people because they think they can get away with it. Well, the community won’t tolerate environmental racism and the right to live in an environment free of toxic chemicals in the water and air pollution.”
