ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The research on which this report is based was financed in part by the United States Department of the Interior, Geological Survey, through the N.C. Water Resources Research Institute. Margaret A. Love, a graduate student in civil engineering supported financially by the project, contributed significantly to all phases of the study. James M. Gordon, also a graduate student in civil engineering, was instrumental in developing, as part of his master's thesis, some of the statistical methodology used herein. Ms. Love contributed to the writing of the "Introduction" section; Mr. Gordon contributed to the writing of both the "Introduction" and the "Procedures" sections. Civil engineering graduate students William L. Saunders, Jr. and Scott A. Robidoux also provided assistance in conducting the project. Specid. thanks go to Robert Mason of the Water Resources Division of the U.S.Geological Survey in Raleigh, NC, for providing streamflow data and helpful comments, and also to the government documents library staff of Atkins Library at The University of North Carolina at Charlotte for their generous efforts in assisting the project. College of Engineering Dean R. D. Snydex and Civil Engineering Department Chairman L. Ellis King of The University of North Carolina at Charlotte provided personal as well as facilities support. ABSTRACT Historical low-streamflow data were analyzed for a number of gaging stations on streams in and around various urban areas in North Carolina in an attempt to find and document effects of urbanization and land-use changes on low streamflows. Records for streams within each urban area were compared with streams outside (but nearby) the urban area by two statistical methods. It was concluded from the study that there is some support for the premise that urbanization causes a decrease in low streamflows over time, but statistically the results are inconclusive. It appears more likely that most small streams--both urban and rural--are experiencing decreasing low flows over time.

The urban areas included Asheville, Greensboro, Raleigh, Charlotte, Goldsboro-Kinston, and Rocky Mount-Tarboro. Records for streams within each urban area were compared with streams outside (but nearby) the urban area by two statistical methods--the One Sample Run Test and the Equality of Slopes Test. The former test checked on the randomness of data; the latter compared slopes of low-flow trends for various pairs of urban versus rural stations. The hypothesis was that low streamflows in North Carolina would exhibit a decreasing trend as urbanization progressed, with the proviso that a similar decreasing trend would not be present for nearby nonurban (rural) areas. In the Asheville area, two rivers were considered--one urban, the other rural. Both exhibited a negative (downward) trend in low flow over time with the urban station's slope being more negative, but statistically they did not differ significantly. In the Greensboro area, two of the three urban areas had positive trends; the third was slightly negative. All of the rural stations exhibited negative trends. This outcome in itself is contrary to the project's hypothesis (that rural slopes should be greater than urban ones). The statistical analyses were, however, inconclusive. In the Raleigh area, trends of all stations were negative, but the lone urban station did have the greatest negative slope; and the statistical analyses did tend to uphold the project's hypothesis. In the Charlotte area, trends for all stations except one--a rural one--were negative. The statistical analyses were not entirely favorable to the project's hypothesis, but the overall results did tend to uphold the hypothesis.

    ABSTRACT PALMER, TRISHA DENISE. The Role of Land-Surface Hydrology on Small Stream Flash Flooding in Central North Carolina. (Under the direction of Dr. Sethu Raman and Kermit Keeter.) In order to determine the influence of various factors on flash flooding, six case studies during which flash flooding occurred across central North Carolina are examined: 1) 26 August 2002, 2) 11 October 2002, 3) 9-10 April 2003, 4) 16 June 2003, 5) 29 July 2003, and 6) 9 August 2003. Utilizing stream gage data from the United States Geological Survey combined with radar-estimated precipitation from the Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler (WSR-88D) KRAX near Clayton, NC, several statistical conclusions are drawn. These conclusions are based on relationships between the inputs – rain rate and precipitation amount – to the stream responses: the amount of time between when the stream began its rise and when the maximum stage was reached, the amount of time between the onset of precipitation and the initial response of the stream, the maximum stage reached, the change in height of the stream, and the rate of change of height of the stream. Results indicate that precipitation rate and amount tend to dominate the influence of stream response; however, in many situations, land-surface characteristics play an important role. The notable situations where precipitation rate and amount do not dominate are along the major rivers, in locations with sandy soils where infiltration is high, and in urban areas, where runoff occurs rapidly and streams thus respond quickly regardless of precipitation rate or amount. In addition, rain rate and precipitation amount do not necessarily have similar relationships with the stream response variables; rain rate has a stronger correlation with rate of change of stream rise, while precipitation amount has a stronger correlation with change in stream height.

Urban One, Inc. ("Urban One") is the general partner of Radio One of Indiana, L.P., hereinafter referred to as "Radio One" or "Company." The Company hereby responds to the complaint of Pierre Q. Pullins that Radio One conspired with U.S. Representative Andre Carson, the Indianapolis Recorder, and the Indianapolis Star to suppress and injure Mr. Pullins' congressional campaign and message. Mr. Pullins lost the May 8,2018 Democratic primary to Rep. Carson, the incumbent since 2008, who garnered 37,662 votes (88% of the total votes cast) compared to Mr. Pullins' 226 votes (0.5% of the total votes cast). There is no basis whatsoever for Mr. Pullins' allegation of a conspiracy among Radio One, Rep. Carson, and two local newspapers that, in fact, are media competitors of Radio One. Mr. Pullins offers no evidence to support his complaint and relies entirely on wild speculation.
