The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have concluded their assessment of North Carolina’s Coastal Nonpoint Pollution Control Program and how well it conforms to regulatory requirements. The state’s program was given “conditional approval” and will have five years to meet their conditions.
