The Public Trust in Submerged Lands

Record #:
18414
Abstract:
Pressures on public resources that increase when the population of an area rapidly swells have been magnified in the environmentally sensitive coastal areas of North Carolina. Controversy over the use of the open waters along the North Carolina coast have precipitated numerous legislative attempts to balance public use of resources with private claims to ownership.
