Abstract:

Currituck County, which contains the longest stretch of undeveloped beach on the east coast of the United States, has placed a one year moratorium on new construction. The moratorium was originally imposed only on Currituck's 23 miles of barrier islands, but has since been expanded to include the entire county. Governor Bob Scott praised the plan, which resulted from a one year study by the county's Planning Board and North Carolina State University, stating that it should be model for the entire state.
