Abstract
  • Much of the aesthetic, economic and biological significance of the coastal zone is dependent on the maintenance of high water quality. However, many of the ways in which people enjoy and exploit coastal resources create disruptions in the natural system, jeopardizing the health of the coastal environment. Declines in coastal water quality can have serious repercussions for the ecological integrity of the coastal zone, as well as for the coastal communities that rely on the rich resources found in the zone. In North Carolina, waters that support shellfish beds (SA waters) require the most stringent compliance with water quality standards—standards that are frequently violated.
