$6.5 million. The total cost of the Mega Boat Landing Project on Lake Moultrie that Berkeley County —in partnership with Santee Cooper — announced in Moncks Corner (~50 minutes from Charleston).

It’s being funded from a 75% matching grant from the state + SC water recreation funds and the Berkeley County Accommodations Fee. Santee Cooper also has provided a long-term gratis lease to the county for the project.
