The Savannah River Plant (SRP) occupies an area of approximately 300 square miles in the upper Coastal Plain of South Carolina. Since the early 1950's it has been the subject of numerous ecological and botanical studies, many of which are focused on environmental effects of industrial activities. Early surveys of the flora have been succeeded by ecological studies of various habitats and species. Reported here are results of a survey of the vascular plants of the SRP, and a compilation of species reported on the site in previous studies. This project was undertaken to provide a list of the naturally-occurring vascular plants found on the SRP for the use of on-site researchers and visiting investigators, and to prepare a local herbarium as a reference collection of SRP plants. 60 refs., 1 fig., 1 tab.
