Abstract:
North Carolina Senate Bill 875 was introduced to correct fragmented, inconsistent and unfair laws on interbasin transfers. Legislators and water resources experts discussed fundamental questions of water rights and the appropriate roles of local and state governments in water resources management at a forum in June. Among discussion were the riparian rights doctrine, economic and ecological issues.
