Abstract:

Forty years ago a fundamental change has taken place in the Neuse and Tar-Pamlico Rivers. Pollution had gotten to such a point in the Neuse River in particular that tourism and the housing market in the area were seeing sharp declines. Events culminated in 1989, when the river basin was declared commercially dead. With the work of "river keepers' an extensive program to reclaim the rivers was pursued. Recently in 2015, the Pamlico-Tar River Foundation and the Neuse River Foundation merged advocacies to become "Sound Rivers".
