Abstract:

Investigations are underway by the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management to determine who is responsible for a major fish kill that occurred at Beaverdam Creek Reservoir in northern Wake County. Thousands of fish died when the City of Raleigh drained the lake at the request of the Corps of Engineers. Officials said a fish kill could have been prevented if a permit had been obtained.
