Haste Sees Threat To Coastal Economy Erie Haste, Jr., of Hert ford, a member of the N. C. Coastal Resources Com mission, disclosed that one of the prime concerns of the commission is the possible undermining of “the economic dependence of the coastal area on the production of natural resources.” Haste revealed the threats that are being wagered against the natural resource production industries such as farming, forestry, and agriculture. Haste men tioned the rapid growth along the coast in the past few years as the main threat to these industries. “Along the Outer Banks, second homes have sprung up, many of them in what were once marshlands. These developments have en dangered the fish breeding grounds and threaten the fishing industry. As well, in the past, prime farm and forest lands were trans formed into housing and commercial development, thus reducing the land available for the production of these natural resources.” Haste’s comments were made in an interview for WITN-TV’s “Tempo”, that was broadcast Sunday. On the program with Haste was Tom Richter, chief planner in the Washington field office of the Department of Natural and Economic Resources. Richter has been responsible for overseeing the Coastal Area Management planning program in 14-northeastern counties. Richter discussed the “State Guidelines for Local Planning in . the Coastal Area” developed by the Coastal Resources Com mission. Max Frieze, host for the “Tempo” program had expressed his concern that many coastal residents felt “the guidelines were too restrictive, and did not really give the local areas enough leeway in planning for their own future.” Richter responded, “When you are talking about guidelines for a planning process, you are really telling people that here is a common vocabulary we want you to use in doing two things: First, in describing the existing land situation and secondly, in describing what you would like to see happen in your county or town in the way of growth management in the future. It is almost essential to have some similar terminology to compare say Beaufort County to Pender County.” Haste, in addition, em phasized that “the responsibility for drafting guidelines and helping with the land-use plans had to come from people that were going to be affected, directly, by the decisions they made.” Haste was referring to the commission, and went on to say “12 of the 15 Coastal Resources commissioners had to be nominated by local government, and 13 have to live on the coast.” Haste also recognized the important role of the Ad visory Council. “The Ad visory Council is one of the most important bodies in this program. It consists of INTEGON? It means insurance for the Agri-businessman. All kinds of insurance For the agri-businessman who owns or manages the large capital investment that is a farm.

The commission usds the council’s comments ex tensively in order to get input from local people on what they would like to see achieved.” Richter then went on to respond to criticism that the Coastal Area Management Act covers only 20 counties in North Carolina, not the entire state. “The coastal area, unlike some other areas of the state, has significant public resources upon which private in- " ”'• !s p' ,: P YOUR CHRISTMAS GIFT CENTER COMPARE ANYWHERE cp rTN -*• I Microwave | Microwave j£Z | Oven Oven jr4r% •is?
