Abstract:
The Neuse River Estuary is a troubled ecological system plagued by algae blooms, fish kills, and the toxic dinoflagellate, Pfiesteria piscicida. Research by the Neuse ModMon Program confirms that it is likely to take many years for the estuary to return to healthy conditions. Stakeholders in the Neuse Basin understand that restoring the estuary is a long-term project and want to communicate to the public about the State’s responsibilities to the Neuse.
