Just In Time
The North Carolina Aquarium
have joined the ranks of mail-order
catalog businesses.
Its new 24-page, 63/i- by 7' i-inch
gift catalog debuts just in time for
Christmas shopping via the U.S.
mail. If you've had second thoughts
about the book, poster or novelty
item you almost bought on a summer
trip to a state aquarium, this is your
chance to buy.
Glossy, full-color photographs
tempt shoppers, and the prices make
buying easy. Priced from $2 to $49.95
most items are within anyone's
range, and profits go to support exhibits
and educational programs at
the three North Carolina Aquariums.
The nearest is at Fort Fisher in Kure
Beach; others are located at Pine
Knoll Shores and Roanoke Island.
What does $2 buy? Something
Fishy, a puzzle of sardines in a can.
With an Aquarium member discount
it's only $1.80.
For $3 ($2.70 members),
youngsters can buy Mom a collection
of time-honored recipes, "Coastal
Carolina Cookbook." Other
cookbooks range in price up to $12.95.
At the far end of the spectrum, the
catalog offers, for $49.95 ($44.96 for
members) "a great gift for those who
love the sea," a 9-inch diameter
brass tide clock. A brass case surrounds
a nautical chart which provides
the background for the clock.

Despite ail earlier plea from tl

Beach Commissioners this wet

tank laws hampering developinei

her fellow board members that tl

'Hie petition, which was approved
ic by the town board on Nov. 7, seeks a
;n change in the state septic tank law
:k which requires at least one foot of
ic "naturally-occurring" soil above the
tit water table in order for the site to be
approved for a permit. It also seeks
ti- amendment to the rule that prohibits
ic placement of a septic tank or its comig
ponents under an impervious surface
le such as a driveway,
in
'y Those two regulations, particularly
the one dealing with original soil,
have left numerous canal lots at
a Holden Beach unbuildable.
Following town adoption of the
to petition, the state Division of Health
lc Services requested that the town

? support a revised set of regulations

f' regulations were supposed to be comy
pleted and available for public comment

members were "dragging their feet"
and that she didn't know when the
new regulations would be completed.
She said the town would be better
off submitting its own petition and
fighting its own battle instead of
waiting for the state to complete its
work.
Houston, consultant for the town's
wastewater treatment needs study,
also strongly recommended Monday
that the town board stand behind the
petition. "I think you ought to go full
steam ahead," he said, adding later
that "it's very easy to defend the rule
changes we're proposing."
Responding to a question from the
board, Houston said that during his
ongoing study, he has found no difference
in the soils on lots approved
for septic tank permits and those
turned down for permits.
Earlier in the discussion, Commissioner
William Williamson had
stated, "It's not a question of
engineering; it's a question of
politics."
