Abstract:
The release of more than a million gallons of dairy waste which killed most of the fish and aquatic life in a section of the Neuse River in November points up a significant potential for pollution. This was the worst fish kill ever attributed to an animal waste spill in the state. The cities of Goldsboro and Smithfield were advised not to draw drinking water from the Neuse for several days.

Abstract:
The Neuse River, one of North Carolina's most valuable estuarine systems, is in danger. The Neuse is highly valuable for its commercial and sport fishing, but it is vulnerable to algal blooms. Side effects of these blooms are toxicity, odor, and fish kills, along with deteriorated water quality for recreational, agricultural, and industrial use.

Hans Paerl and Rick Leuttich, Carolina marine scientists, are concerned about fish kills and algal blooms in the Neuse River because they may be a sign of declining water quality. Their new monitoring project is confirming that the health of fish is influenced by nitrogen loading, oxygen levels, and water circulation patterns.
