  • The Trading Path and North Carolina
    Journal of Backcountry Studies The Trading Path and North Carolina BY REBECCA TAFT FECHER Frontier is a subjective term, and one that has shifted and evolved over the years. North Carolina‟s piedmont and mountains originally were „frontier‟. The ever shifting frontier of North Carolina was explored cautiously, and with the help of the natives. In their explorations, and settlement of North Carolina, old native “trading paths” were utilized. Although some has been written about roads and paths into this area, most of the focus has been on the “Great Wagon Road”. A more fascinating look into the settlement of North Carolina‟s frontier is “the braided network of paths” and roads that make up what are referred to as the Great Trading Path.1 The label, in reality, referred to any number of different paths/roads within the state. This network allowed for the settlement of far flung areas in North Carolina, laying the ground work for where towns were formed, and providing a starting point for later roads throughout the state. Trade path routes were originally buffalo paths that then became Indian trails which were taken over by European explorers and settlers. Remnants of these old roads and trails have largely been forgotten as cars speed by, but can still be seen along many roads in this state. In many places, current roads overlay the centuries old paths. “The slender paths of aboriginal intercourse have been broadened and interwoven into the complex mazes of modern commercial lines”.2 Not only do these old roads represent our colonial beginnings, but they are a tangible part of our history that had a direct impact on where and how North Carolina was settled.

  • Creative Uses for Repurposed Historic Textile Mills a Case Study of Revolution Textile Mill, Greensboro N.C
    Creative Uses for Repurposed Historic Textile Mills A Case Study of Revolution Textile Mill, Greensboro N.C by Emma Kathleen Schropp A Masters Project submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of City and Regional Planning in the Department of City and Regional Planning Chapel Hill April 3, 2014 Creative Uses for Repurposed Historic Mills: A Case Study of Revolution Textile Mill, Greensboro N.C i Acknowledgements In particular, I must thank Tony Sease, my fearless advisor, for his contributions and encouragement even as I was working down to the wire. His knowledge of and perspective on the field of preservation and redevelopment was invaluable in guiding my writing and pointing me to new resources when I felt I had exhausted everything. I am also grateful to Malcolm White and Jim Overton with Self-Help, and to Eddie Belk of Belk Architecture for providing personal insights and interviews. And to the many people who have offered assistance in documenting this project. ii Abstract While most scholars on the subject of North Carolina industrial history agree on the reasons for its rise and subsequent devastating decline, they offer little insight to the future of the mill buildings that remain as the industry’s physical legacy. Very few sources discuss viable uses for rehabilitating these structures, largely leaving this field to be determined by a market study. This paper explores the adaptive reuse approach of a former textile mill in Greensboro, N.C. The goal is to analyze the approach taken to reactivate the Mill as a meaningful campus within the larger context of the town, with specific regard to Greensboro’s textile history.

  • Cape Fear River Basin Action Plan for Migratory Fish
    Cape Fear River Basin Action Plan for Migratory Fish e Fe ap ar C R p i i v e h r s developed by P r a r t n e The Cape Fear River Partnership The Cape Fear River Partnership was formed in 2011 with a vision of a healthy Cape Fear River for fish and people. The partnership's mission is to restore and demonstrate the value of robust, productive, and self-sustaining stocks of migratory fish in the Cape Fear River. Building on the momentum of the newly constructed fish passage at Lock & Dam #1, this partnership of key federal, state, local, academic, and other organizations in the region is working together on this multi-year action plan. Using a broad range of tools and capabilities, we seek to provide long-term, habitat-based solutions for the most pressing challenges for migratory fish. The partnership strives to measure achievement of our mission our success with the following targets: increased fish populations (as measured by catch-per-unit efforts, improved age structure, and other techniques), increased recreational fishing success for shad, striped bass, and river herring (as measured by creel surveys), and a re-opened striped bass and river herring harvest in the Cape Fear River. The following organizations are members of the Cape Fear River Partnership: American Rivers (AR) Atlantic Coastal Fish Habitat Partnership (ACFHP) Cape Fear Arch Conservation Collaboration (Arch) Cape Fear Public Utility Authority (CFPUA) Cape Fear River Assembly Cape Fear River Watch (CFRW) City of Wilmington Dial Cordy and Associates Inc.

  • Fish Consumption Patterns and Mercury Advisory Knowledge Among Fishers in the Haw River Basin
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE Fish Consumption Patterns and Mercury Advisory Knowledge Among Fishers in the Haw River Basin Jill E. Johnston, Kate Hoffman, Steve Wing, Amy Lowman background Fish consumption has numerous health benefits, with fish providing a source of protein as well as omega-3 fatty acids. How- ever, some fish also contain contaminants that can impair human health. In North Carolina, the Department of Health and Human Services has issued fish consumption advisories due to methylmercury contamination in fish. Little is known about local fishers’ consumption -pat terns and advisory adherence in North Carolina. methods We surveyed a consecutive sample of 50 fishers (74.6% positive response rate) who reported eating fish caught from the Haw River Basin or Jordan Lake. They provided information on demographic characteristics, species caught, and the frequency of local fish con- sumption. Additionally, fishers provided information on their knowledge of fish consumption advisories and the impact of those advisories on their fishing and fish consumption patterns. results The majority of participants were male (n = 44) and reported living in central North Carolina. Catfish, crappie, sunfish, and large- mouth bass were consumed more frequently than other species of fish. Of the fishers surveyed, 8 reported eating more than 1 fish meal high in mercury per week, which exceeds the North Carolina advisory recommendation. Most participants (n = 32) had no knowledge of local fish advisories, and only 4 fishers reported that advisories impacted their fishing practices. limitations We sampled 50 fishers at 11 locations. There is no enumeration of the dynamic population of fishers and no way to assess the representativeness of this sample.
