SC lacks basic safeguards for heavy‑industrial siting and high‑consumption projects:
• no environmental review before approval
• no siting standards for hazardous or chemical‑using facilities
• no zoning protections for homes or schools
• no disclosure of industrial water or power demand
• no wastewater‑capacity review
• no cumulative‑impact analysis
• no public hearings for high‑risk projects
• no requirement to assess emergency access or evacuation routes
