The relief valve made a loud noise and a rumble was heard for miles at about 9:45 p.m. at a power plant near the Lake Murray dam.

Irmo Fire County officials described it as a “valve burst” at the McMeaken Power Station at 6055 Bush River Road, which many believed was an earthquake.

The South Carolina Department of Emergency Management said they had no official reports of an earthquake. If a low-magnitude earthquake does indeed occur, it will be confirmed by the US Geological Survey.

Dominion Energy has sent repair kits to the plant along with law enforcement, but according to a company representative, the facility does not belong to Dominion Energy. A Dominion public affairs specialist referred to the accident as a pressure release from the natural gas regulating plant. No one was injured, and there were no reports of power outages as a result of the accident.

Several residents posted on social media on Friday evening inquiring about the incident. There were reports of loud noises being heard in Lexington, and others like Wheat Street in downtown Columbia said they felt “boom”.

SCEMD issued a statement confirming that the loud noise was a vent valve on the natural gas pipeline.

Update: The Supreme Committee for Oversight Staff Office confirmed that the loud sound heard / felt in the Midlands tonight was a vent valve on the natural gas line near the Saloda Dam. ORS says the valve is active to prevent a rupture of the gas line. Safety systems worked as intended.
