Abstract:

A project to restore 1,400 feet of an urban creek running through the North Carolina State University campus began in February 2009. Approximately 235 buried feet of Rocky Creek and will be dug up as part of the project. The creek flows into Walnut Creek, a tributary of the Neuse River, which empties into Pamlico Sound. The restored creek will be free of pollution and will support a variety of aquatic life and vegetation.
