The $1.3-million grant, to be matched with donations of $1.3-million worth of land to the state, will be used for pur chasing unsubdivided proper ly located immediately north of Corolla in Currituck Coun ty. The proposed sanctuatry site, generally known as the Monkey Island area, includes 757 acres of upland property, several small islands, and an extensive marsh complex. The properties involved are now owned by the Nature Conservancy and a group of private investors. A detailed environmental assessment on this proposed addition to North Carolina's estuarine sanctuary system has been prepared by the state and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Ad ministration, the federal agency responsible for the na tional sanctuary program. Copies of the assessment are available from the Office of Coastal Management in NRCD. A public meeting to discuss the proposal will be held at the Currituck County Courthouse at T OO P M oo July 14. In announcing the grant ap plication, Grimsley said there were several other key aspects of the state's pro posal. “While we will be preserving and protecting tins valuable natural area, the sound and marsh portion of ‘ the site will also be available for continued I—Hug and fishing, which is so important for the Cumtuek Sound area. RVe have approval to place a small beach recreation area in the sanctuary. These rales are compatible with research and education, will not harm 1 the environment, and over the ; long run will greatly add to public enjoyment of the sanc tuary “ he added. Grimsley also said that 1 establishment of the sanc tuary would not reduce cur rent access across the site by Outer Banks residents. While there is no road across the site, residents have tradi tionally driven along the beach to reach their homes. Grimsley said be was aware ' of the access controversy generated by past acqu*stk» proposals, but said the pro posal will not reduce or eliminate anybody’s rights of access. As soon as federal approval for the project is received, an advisory ommitteemadeup of local officials, fishermen, hunters, residents, and educators will be established to advise the state as to how the site should be managed. The state's estuarine sanc tuary system was established in 1982. It now has two sites, Zeke's Island in New Hanover and Brunswick counties and Carrot Island in Carteret County.

Agriculture is the No. 1 employer in North Carolina. A strong agricultural economy is essential to meet the neeth of both the rural and urban populations of Carolina. North Carolina has a rich agricultural heritage and must not get side-tracked from an awareness of the im portanct of agriculture. Rep. James challenged the society to help him in his endeavor to make the public aware of the importance of agriculture in our society and to join him in trying to solve the problems facing agriculture.
