Abstract:

Governor James B. Hunt's Million Acre initiative, which will protect a million acres over the next decade, was passed by the 2000 North Carolina General Assembly. Funding was provided for the land-preservation program which seeks to save valuable wildlife habitats and game lands from development. Provision for a Million Acre Advisory Panel to oversee the project was also included in the legislation.
