Abstract:

Researchers at the Water Resources Research Institute say that even though Western North Carolina has traditionally been regarded as an economically depressed area, population growth in the area is posing a threat to the quality of the area’s public water supplies. A new report assesses the threat to water supplies in the region through a study of a variety of data.
