Abstract:

Taylor discusses the Stream Watch Program, which is conducted by the Division of Environmental Management of the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources and Community Development. The program seeks to improve the water quality in the state's rivers and streams by making citizens aware of pollution problems and involving them in waterway protection. Private citizens are often the first to spot a potential problem because of their use of waterways for recreational purposes.
