Abstract:

In 1998, when Bill Holman, a former environmental lobbyist, was named assistant secretary for environmental protection in the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources, conservationists were delighted, and many business leaders were not. While a number of measures were passed in the 1998 General Assembly, including reducing nitrogen dumping in the Neuse River, time constraints of Holman's job limited action on other matters, like urban sprawl.
