Brassell, 326 S.C. 556, 560, 486 S.E.2d 492, 494 (Ct.App. 1997). The first inquiry is whether the statute's meaning is clear on its face. Wadev. Berkeley County, 348 S.C. 224, 229, 559 S.E.2d 586, 588 (2002); Eagle Container Co., L.L.C v. County ofNewberry, 366 S.C. 611, 622, 622 S.E.2d 733, 738 (Ct.App. 2005). With any question regarding statutory construction and application, the court must always look to legislative intent as determined from the plain language of the statute.
