Abstract/Contents: | Discusses water restrictions in North Carolina, stating that "apart from the water restrictions that local and regional authorites imposed, which are likely to become year round, Gov. [Governor] Mike Easley...signed a bill giving the state the power to order water restrictions. The law allows the state to order local or regional water providers to ratchet up to a more severe level of restrictions." Concludes that "the drought has made everybody in this business think and readjust." |
