Abstract:
The General Assembly created the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program in 1996 to repair degraded wetland areas and create new areas to compensate for losses. About two-thirds of North Carolina’s remaining wetlands and associated floodplains and riparian areas are privately owned. For that reason, private landowners will largely determine the success of the wetland restoration program.
