Item 5.03    AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION OR BYLAWS;

CHANGES IN FISCAL YEAR.

Effective February 19, 2009, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of SCANA Corporation (the “Company”) amended the second sentence of Article II, Section 2 of the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company adopted December 13, 2000 (the "Bylaws") to change the minimum share ownership requirement for Company directors from the current requirement of at least 100 shares of the Company's common stock to a requirement that directors must own a number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to the number of shares granted in the five most recent annual retainers for directors.  This section of the Bylaws was further amended to provide that (a) persons serving as independent directors as of February 1, 2009 are required to meet the minimum share ownership requirement by the last day of February 2014, and persons who are subsequently elected as directors are required to meet such requirement within six years following the date of their election to the Board and (b) the Nominating Committee of the Board of Directors, or such other Board committee as the Board shall designate, has the discretion to grant a temporary waiver of such minimum share ownership requirements upon demonstration by a director that, due to a financial hardship or other good reason, he or she cannot meet the minimum share ownership requirements.

The Board of Directors shall be entitled to make such rules, regulations and procedures

for the conduct of meetings of shareholders as it shall deem necessary, appropriate or convenient.  Subject to such rules,

regulations and procedures of the Board of Directors, if any, the chairman of the meeting shall have the right and authority to

 For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a

specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors made by the Corporation at least 120 days prior to the first anniversary of

the date of the proxy statement sent to shareholders in connection with the preceding year’s annual meeting, a shareholder’s notice

required by this Bylaw shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such

increase, if it shall be delivered to and received by the Secretary at the principal office of the Corporation not later than the close of

business on the 10th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation.

the nominee or any other person (naming such person) relating to the nomination; (b) as to any other business that the shareholder

proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for

conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such shareholder and the beneficial owner, if

any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; (c) as to the shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose

behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such shareholder, as they appear on the Corporation’s

books, and of such beneficial owner and (ii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation which are owned beneficially and of

record by such shareholder and such beneficial owner.

 Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in these Bylaws shall be eligible to serve as

directors and only such business shall be conducted at an annual meeting of shareholders as shall have been brought before the

meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section.  The chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to

determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made in accordance with the

procedures set forth in this Section and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with this Section, to declare

that such defective proposal shall be disregarded.

News Service, Associated Press or comparable national news

service, or in a document mailed to all shareholders of record.

Board of Directors so determines or (b) to fill a vacancy created by the removal of a director at such special meeting.  Nominations

of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be

elected (a) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (b) by any shareholder of the Corporation who was a shareholder of
