The Town’s stormwater committee was established in 2016 to address flooding and water quality issues.
The committee consists of Town elected officials, staff, and residents as well as local organizations including the N.C. Coastal Reserve, North Carolina Coastal Federation, UNC Institute of Marine Science, Duke University, Eastern Carolina Council, and Carteret County Soil & Water Conservation District.
The committee has been successful in identifying flooding hotspots, writing a Watershed Restoration Plan, and securing grant funding through committee partners to make infrastructure and water quality improvements. The Watershed Restoration Plan, which has been approved by the State, makes the Town eligible for federal funding for stormwater control measures. The goal of this plan is to reduce the volume of stormwater reaching our local waterbodies as well as matching capital improvement projects with stormwater control measures.
