Record #:

Author(s):
Abstract:
Restoring degraded inland streams is critical to protecting the health of the state's estuarine systems. Rocky Branch, which flows a mile through the North Carolina State University campus before emptying into Walnut Creek, was designated in 1978 as \"the most polluted urban stream in North Carolina.\" Smith describes the steps being taken at a cost of $4 million to restore this once pristine waterway.
