  • Bank: means the South Carolina Conservation Bank. See South Carolina Code 48-59-30
  • Common law: The legal system that originated in England and is now in use in the United States. It is based on judicial decisions rather than legislative action.
  • Conviction: A judgement of guilt against a criminal defendant.
  • Department: means the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control. See South Carolina Code 48-57-20
  • Environmental audit: means a voluntary, internal evaluation or review of one or more facilities or an activity at one or more facilities regulated under federal, state, regional, or local environmental law, or of compliance programs, or management systems related to the facility or activity if designed to identify and prevent noncompliance and to improve compliance with these laws. See South Carolina Code 48-57-20
  • Environmental laws: means all provisions of federal, state, regional, and local laws, regulations, and ordinances pertaining to environmental matters. See South Carolina Code 48-57-20
  • Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
