Abstract:

The Beaufort County Voice of America radio transmission site from the Cold War is now owned by the Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC) due to it being an outdated form of communication. The WRC is going to make this site into game land to protect the Henslow’s sparrow, a bird endangered in some states, as many live on the land already. The land will also be used for hunting.
