P«0« 12 WtH Cwvtn Hlflhilflhtt August 21,1986 Coastal N.C. Projects Funded by House-Pass ed Bill WaaWngton, D.C.-- Financ ing for three projects proposed by North Caroiina's First District Congressman Waiter B. Jones—inciuding the dredging of Oregon Inlet- have been approved by the U.S. House of Representatives. The projects were included in the Energy and Water Development Appropriations bill for fiscal year 1987, H.R. 5162, which passed the House last week. The funding for Oregon Inlet totals $5,688,000 for mainte nance dredging of the channel. "Treacherous conditions ^ continue to exist at Oregon ‘ Inlet and continue to plague fishermen and all others who must use this channel. This dredging money will allow the Inlet to be kept open until a ^permanent stabilization of the ; Inlet is achieved," stated Congressman Jones. In 1984, the House of Representatives approved Congressman Jones' legisla tion permittingthe Army Corps of Engineers to construct the jetties necessary for Oregon Inlet stabilization, but opponents have since blocked its approval in the Senate. Also included in the funding legislation is $250,000 for the Corp of Engineers to begin a water quality and hydrology study in the Albemarle/Pamli co estuary. "At my urging, the Environmental Protection Agency in April of this year designated the Albemarle/ Pamlico Sounds as an estuary of national significance. This designation is focusing federal, state, local, and private efforts into the cooperative developement of recom mendations for the long-term management of the estuary. "The protection of our fishery resources and the water quality in the Sounds is critical to the commercial and recreational uses of our coastal areas. This new funding will complement other efforts that together will ensure a complete and factual basis for making the important management decisions ahead," Congressman Jones stated. The report accompanying H.R. 5126 also urges the Corps to consider using the inlets of North Carolina for a piloit program on restoring fisheries habitats. (The Corps and the National Marine Fisheries Service last year agreed to begin a joint project to investigate the practicability of habitat restoration.) Finally, H.R. 5162 included $533,000 for the operation and maintenance of the Dismal Swamp Canal, a scenic alternative to a portion of the Inland Waterway.
