ment of environmental
sciences and engineering who
is also on the institute board,
said, ‘‘As long as I’ve known
Dave he has had a deep in-
terest in water resources
from both the academic and
professional points of view.
He is quite familiar with na-
tional needs through his work
on national committees and
is able to relate those needs to
UNC researchers and the
special water resources pro-
blems we have.”
All public and private col-
leges and universities in
North Carolina are eligible to
work with the institute, which
is supported by about $400,000
a year in state appropriations
and about $100,000 more from
the federal government. (In
constant dollars, the federal
contributions is about a third
of what it was in 1964.)
“That program is virtually
gone, part of the general cut-
back in federal programs,”
Moreau said, ‘‘so we have
had to go out and be
somewhat innovative about

‘Moreau Tackles State’s
raising additional funds
beyond the state appropria-
tions.”
One of those innovations
was the N.C. Urban Water
Consortium, which includes
the university, the Orange
Water and Sewer Authority
and the cities of Raleigh,
Burlington, Durham, High
Point and Winston-Salem.
The consortium, which
Moreau called a ‘‘very suc-
cesful program,’ is sponsor-
ing research that includes a
search for biological ways to
remove phosphorous from
water. Existing chemical
methods of removing
phosphorous leave a sludge
that is difficult to dispose of,
Moreau said.
Another project involves
development of computer
software for preventive
maintenance of water and
sewer facilities.
“We have an enormous
capital investment out there
in water and sewer systems
and we’ve got to maintain it,”
Moreau said. ‘‘One of the
very difficult problems is
scheduling the maintenance
on those systems. There are

that you've got a hundred
- thousand sinks you’ve got to
take care of.”
Moreau said he is basically
optimistic about the future of
the state’s water resources:
“I’ve watched water
management in North
Carolina for 26 years now and
I have seen a very steady ad-
vancement of management
skills, a willingness for local
governments to tackle the
problems they have to tackle,
to set the rates that are suffi-
cient to maintain our water
supplies and treat our waste
water.
¢¢...The thing that scares us
the most is the mushrooming
new technology of new
chemicals, the discovery
after the fact of many
hazards.
‘“..In the past few years
we’ve been improving our
analytical capability so we
can detect substances almost
at the parts per trillion level,
but we don’t know what the
health implications are.
“A lot of questions remain:
Are we going to be able to
sustain education and
¢ research at levels that keep
pace with technology and the

anti-growth person, but are
we willing to pay for in-

Moreau lives in Chapel
Hill. For relaxation he likes
to read, go sailing on Jordan
or Kerr lakes, watch football
or basketball, and go to his
son’s soccer games.
“Most of the time, though, I
seem to wind up working
around the house,”” Moreau
said. ‘I designed my yard so
it would drain properly.
That's where my water ex-
pertise has gone—drainage
and finding enough water so
the grass will grow.”
