OVEN THE CHOWAN HERALD Fisheries Low Violations Mora Costly When a N. C. marine fisheries law officer puts the pinch on a violator, the guy is starting to fed it more. Until- recently a trip to court . with a coastal fisheries violation was not much to worry about. Fines averaged $3.13 from 1968 through 1972. During 1973 the average fine per conviction increased to $7, and during 1974 the average fine was $11.33. The 315 violators from May, 1975, through April, 1976 (the latest statistics available) paid an average of $14.07. Cost of court is up to $25 for a guilty count, so even those found guilty but given no fine were still penalized enough to know they had been there. During the last year inspectors had a 90 per cent record of guilty convictions. Fines are still ridiculously low in comparison to our neighboring states. The 1970 General Assembly provided a SSO minimum fine for first time offenders of certain coastal fisheries laws. One of the laws concerned gathering shellfish in polluted areas. During the last year, 37 persons were apprehended in this activity and so charged. Thirty-four were found guilty. Only 12 were fined. The dredge and fill law (digging and dumping in the estuaries) is punishable by a SSOO maximum fine. During the time frame there were 18 alleged violators and 10 were found guilty. Three were let go with no fines. Two got hit for $25, two for SSO, two for SIOO and one for $250. Illegal use of hydraulic clam dredges was another SSO category. Five tickets were issued, five guilty decisions, and all fines were less than SSO. Shrimping regulations are particularly troublesome. Areas can be closed and opened with only a 48-hour notice and it can be difficult for fishermen to keep up with the changes. Communications between the state marine fisheries agenay and shrimpers continue to be a problem. The situation becomes more complex as more pleasure fishermen try their hand at shrimping. Due to extenuating circumstances, some alleged shrimp violators were processed under the SSO minimum * fine, some were not. Court handling of shrimp cases appears to be on the upswing. During 1972, for example, the average fine Rif IMMANUEL CHRISTIAN SCHOOL ■■ 4 DISTINCTIVELY CHRISTIAN BHD | toJjcM ....

The average Legislature Criticized Waverly Akins, a Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, brought the N. C. Legislature under sharp attack last Wednesday in a Raleigh news conference. Akins said he felt too many leaders in the General Assembly are being influenced by special interest groups. He also chided the Senate for its recent move to strip the lieutenant governor of his appointment powers. Akins said, “I do not believe the people of N. C. will allow this enfringement of their rights” and added, “I feel as Sailiag Coarse Ear oil Meat Eads This Satarday The last chance to sign up for a sailing course sponsored by the Edenton Yacht Club will be this Saturday morning..

But even with the penalty increase, fines are too small to be much of a deterrent to -a man who could catch a boatload of high-priced shrimp. lieutenant governor, who is elected by all the people of this great State, it is a direct imbalance of constitutional authority to lessen the voice of the people in their government.” Akins further stated that he would work to see that legislation is enacted to move the August primary bade to its former schedule of May, since it is obvious that it has not worked out “financially or physically to hold, the primary in August.” In addition, Akins brought out many areas of crime in North Carolina that need serious attention of the lawmakers. Among those are “loan shark” operations whom Akins described as “extortioners”. He further cited the increasing obscenity problems in the state, which are “corrupting a decent society”. Other areas mentioned were drugs and gambling laws.
