RESOLUTION
OF THE
NEW HANOVER COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
V\THEREAS, the N. C. Division of Water Quality and many research organizations have
identified agricultural practices, land disturbing activities performed as part of
commercial, residential and/or industrial development, and rUllofffrom developed
community areas as major sources of non-point water pollution in coastal streams,
estuaries, and bays; and
WHEREAS, partnership programs focused by the Soil and Water Conservation Districts
of the state have shown that a combination of education, outreach and technical
assistance to farmers, and sharing with landowners the cost of installing on farms and
forests best water quality management practices do significantly control sedimentation
and non-point pollution from agricultural lands; and
V\THEREAS, by administering provisions of the N. C. Erosion and Sediment Control
Act, and by enacting controls in subdivision and other ordinances and building codes,
New Hanover County has installed major controls over erosion and sediment
contributions from new commercial, residential and industrial development; and
WHEREAS, there is, and has been, no comprehensive, statewide program that can focus
education, outreach, technical assistance and cost-sharing in already developed, non-farm
areas; and
WHEREAS, in many areas of the state, managing the quality of storm water runoff in
both incorporated and unincorporated communities where farm and forest land is being
converted to suburban-style development is placing heavy financial burdens on the
affected jurisdictions for both technical expertise and necessary infrastructure; and
WHEREAS, the New Hanover Soil and Water Conservation District in pioneering work
countywide and in the Hewletts Creek watershed, ,and the N. C. Cooperative Extension
Service in the Burnt Mill Creek watershed, have demonstrated through actual field work
that the education, outreach, technical assistance and financial incentives model found so
effective in the agriculture sector is equally effective in attacking non-point sources of
water pollution in already developed residential and commercial community areas; and
WHEREAS, the North Carolina Association of Soil and Water Conservation Districts
has formed a standing Community Conservation Committee and adopted a resolution to
formally request the North Carolina General Assembly to authorize and fund a statewide
Community Conservation Assistance Program.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT JRESOL VED, that the New Hanover County Board of
Commissioners urges members of the General Assembly, particularly those representing
New Hanover County, to activeJly support actions that will authorize and fund the
statewide Community Conservation Districts.
Adopted this, the 18th day of April 2006.
