The 1986 General Assembly appropriated three-million-dollars to the North Carolina Soil and Water Conservation Commission to continue and expand a cost-share program for agricultural non-point source pollution control. This will allow the program to be extended into seventeen additional counties located in the coastal area. Farmers who receive cost sharing will be required to perform certain fertilizer and waste management practices.

This article examines some recent developments in the evolving legislative-executive relationships with respect to the state budget.

Abstract:
The North Carolina Highway Commission was authorized to spend over $197 million for maintenance and construction of highways in the state during the next biennium ending in 1961. This amounted to a 2.3% increase from the previous year. Salary increases and administrative costs, along with other non-highway projects such as the state prison management, will take up a bulk of the revenue earned from gasoline, motor, and other taxes.

Abstract:
The 1957 North Carolina General Assembly was able to authorize spending over $32,000,000 more than was estimated will be collected in General Fund taxes. A surplus of over $62,000,000 helped aid the state budget and allow for increases in spending on state operations.

Abstract:
The 1953 North Carolina General Assembly will face struggles dealing with the problem of appropriations for the coming years. Given the heavy tax-take by the federal government and heavy industrial growth, the General Assembly will have to estimate how much will be available for allocation, which is estimated to not be enough for all major expenditures of the state. For example, a major consideration is the expansion of the main highway system through the state.
