The South Carolina Aeronautics Commission (SCAC) is a government agency in the U.S. state of South Carolina. The SCAC, in conjunction with the Federal Aviation Administration, is "responsible for collecting, validating, and distributing the operational status of all aspects of the state’s air traffic facilities, in addition to the safety of the people in these locations."{{Cite web |date=2021 |title=Report Card for South Carolina's Infrastructure |url=https://infrastructurereportcard.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/SC_IRC_2021-Report-9-7-2021_Reduced-Size.pdf |website=Infrastructure Report Card |publisher=South Carolina Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers}} The agency also promulgates rules and regulations of airports and administers airport grants in the state.{{Cite web |last=Cary |first=Nathaniel |date=2023-05-01 |title=New SC airport rules paused after Greenville development outcry |url=https://www.postandcourier.com/greenville/new-sc-airport-rules-paused-after-greenville-development-outcry/article_318a31e8-e609-11ed-9f3f-7f46ea56c9f5.html |access-date=2023-10-02 |website=Post and Courier |language=en}}{{Cite web |last=Biesk |first=Audrey |date=2018-09-08 |title=Multi-million dollar rehab project coming to Grand Strand Airport |url=https://www.wmbfnews.com/story/39049975/multi-million-dollar-rehab-project-coming-to-grand-strand-airport |access-date=2023-10-02 |website=WMBF News |language=en}}
