We owe thanks many times over to them and to the personnel at the Fort Fisher Preservation Lab and the-Fort Fisher Museum. Our lab facilities at the N.C. Marine Resources Center at Kure Beach have been more than comfort- able, and the whole staff there has made us feel very much at home. Nat Blevins, our.-C.E.T.A. coordinator, and his assistant, Lucille.Walker, acted as parents to.our project. The special attention they gave us was often much needed and always deeply appreciated. Two i:nd.ivliduals contrlibuted: much of their-.ow tinme,.•_:;Thei+'r!arne sit'• enthusiasm for the'science of-.archeology refreshed-us all]. Tom Schietlin, state archeologist at the Archeology Branch, Raleigh, has worked closely with us in our efforts to enter New Hanover County mapping data and arch- eological information into-the Land Resources Information Service. David Weaver, assistant professor at Wake Forest University, handled the analysis. of all our faunal remains. His field inspection of the burial feature-at 31NH28 was thorough, and proved instructional to us all. These two have added much to our understanding of the archeological evidence in the county. The most.credit is due to the individuals on our survey team, each adding their varied talents and energies to make it an interesting and successful project. Through all kinds of situations and many procedural. changes, they have always managed to keep their heads up and see each job through.. Special thanks goes to Ida Landis,our secretary, whose organization and reliability kept the project running smoothly. We wish to express our gratitude to the people of New Hanover County for their interest, information, and hospitality. We hope that this report takes a step toward protecting their" cultural history. Mark Wilde-Ramsing v INTRODUCTION During the winter months of 1977, a C.E.T.A. (Comprehensive Employ- Training Act) Project was proposed by Dina Hill and Gordon Watts, both of North Carolina Archaeological Branch at Fort Fisher to Nat Blevins, C.E.T.A. coordinator for Division of Archives and History. The project was desicned to fund an archaeoloaical survey of New Hanover County to fill a lack in substantial and comprehensive archaeological site information. It was felt that the rapfd development in a county already impacted by a great deal of modern construction was running far ahead of a statewide survey planned to detect and protect archaeologically sensitive areas. If sites could..be located and evidence presented for use by environmental reviewing agencies, such as the Army Corps of Engineers, North Carolina Archaeology Branches at Fort Fisher and Raleighand local city/county planners, the loss of irreplaceable cultural resources could, at least to some degree, be checked. Although the project proposal was waylaid for several months, it was eventually resubmitted in June, 1977, and approved as of June 31st. The project was to commence immediately manned with a nine member team, which included a project director, two field supervisors, four field assistants, a draftsman and a secretary, and extend for a twelve mohth period. It had been funded exactly as submitted with money set aside for salaries, travel, xeroxing and supplies. The approval came~at an inopportune time since the majority of' Fort Fisher staff was tied up with the recovery project at Fort Branch, North Carolina, and-therefore, a delay until August 1, 1977 was asked for and granted. At this time, candidates who had to fullfill the C.E.T.A. requirements were being channeled to Fort Fisher for interviews. A surprise reversal required that by July 18, 1977 the project be operational at least to some deqree. Personnel were hired as they applied to ensure that the project

  • Environmental Assessment of the Lower Cape Fear River System, 2013
    Environmental Assessment of the Lower Cape Fear River System, 2013 By Michael A. Mallin, Matthew R. McIver and James F. Merritt August 2014 CMS Report No. 14-02 Center for Marine Science University of North Carolina Wilmington Wilmington, N.C. 28409 Executive Summary Multiparameter water sampling for the Lower Cape Fear River Program (LCFRP) has been ongoing since June 1995. Scientists from the University of North Carolina Wilmington’s (UNCW) Aquatic Ecology Laboratory perform the sampling effort. The LCFRP currently encompasses 33 water sampling stations throughout the lower Cape Fear, Black, and Northeast Cape Fear River watersheds. The LCFRP sampling program includes physical, chemical, and biological water quality measurements and analyses of the benthic and epibenthic macroinvertebrate communities, and has in the past included assessment of the fish communities. Principal conclusions of the UNCW researchers conducting these analyses are presented below, with emphasis on water quality of the period January - December 2013. The opinions expressed are those of UNCW scientists and do not necessarily reflect viewpoints of individual contributors to the Lower Cape Fear River Program. The mainstem lower Cape Fear River is a 6th order stream characterized by periodically turbid water containing moderate to high levels of inorganic nutrients. It is fed by two large 5th order blackwater rivers (the Black and Northeast Cape Fear Rivers) that have low levels of turbidity, but highly colored water with less inorganic nutrient content than the mainstem. While nutrients are reasonably high in the river channels, major algal blooms have until recently been rare because light is attenuated by water color or turbidity, and flushing is usually high (Ensign et al.

  • Bibliography of North Carolina Underwater Archaeology
    i BIBLIOGRAPHY OF NORTH CAROLINA UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY Compiled by Barbara Lynn Brooks, Ann M. Merriman, Madeline P. Spencer, and Mark Wilde-Ramsing Underwater Archaeology Branch North Carolina Division of Archives and History April 2009 ii FOREWARD In the forty-five years since the salvage of the Modern Greece, an event that marks the beginning of underwater archaeology in North Carolina, there has been a steady growth in efforts to document the state’s maritime history through underwater research. Nearly two dozen professionals and technicians are now employed at the North Carolina Underwater Archaeology Branch (N.C. UAB), the North Carolina Maritime Museum (NCMM), the Wilmington District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), and East Carolina University’s (ECU) Program in Maritime Studies. Several North Carolina companies are currently involved in conducting underwater archaeological surveys, site assessments, and excavations for environmental review purposes and a number of individuals and groups are conducting ship search and recovery operations under the UAB permit system. The results of these activities can be found in the pages that follow. They contain report references for all projects involving the location and documentation of physical remains pertaining to cultural activities within North Carolina waters. Each reference is organized by the location within which the reported investigation took place. The Bibliography is divided into two geographical sections: Region and Body of Water. The Region section encompasses studies that are non-specific and cover broad areas or areas lying outside the state's three-mile limit, for example Cape Hatteras Area. The Body of Water section contains references organized by defined geographic areas.

  • A Case Study of Carolina Bays and Ditched Streams at Risk Under the Proposed WOTUS Definition
    CAPE FEAR RIVER WATERSHED: A Case Study of Carolina Bays and Ditched Streams at Risk under the Proposed WOTUS Definition The Cape Fear River. Photo by Kemp Burdette The Cape Fear River Basin is North Carolina’s largest watershed, with an area of over 9,000 square miles. Major tributaries include the Deep River, the Haw River, the Northeast Cape Fear River, the Black River, and the South River. These rivers converge to form a thirty-mile-long estuary before flowing into the Atlantic Ocean at Cape Fear.1 The Cape Fear supplies water to some of the fastest ​ growing counties in the United States;2 roughly one in five North Carolinians gets their drinking ​ water from the Cape Fear, including residents of Greensboro, Fayetteville, and Wilmington.3 ​ The Cape Fear Basin is a popular watershed for a variety of recreation activities. State parks along the river include Haw River State Park, Raven Rock State Park, and Carolina Beach State Park. The faster-flowing water of the upper basin is popular with paddlers, as are the slow meandering blackwater rivers and streams of the lower Cape Fear and estuary. Fishing is very popular; the Cape Fear supports a number of freshwater species, saltwater species, and even anadromous (migratory) species like the endangered sturgeon, striped bass, and shad. Cape Fear River Watershed: Case Study Page 2 of 8 The Cape Fear is North Carolina’s most ecologically diverse watershed; the Lower Cape Fear is notable because it is part of a biodiversity “hotspot,” recording the largest degree of biodiversity on the eastern seaboard of the United States.

MITCHELL, Editor Published by the State Department of Archives and History Box 1881, Raleigh, N. C. 27602 BOGGAN-HAMMOND HOUSE DEDICATED May 9 was the date of the dedication of the Boggan-Hammond House in Wadesboro and of the Cedar Creek Meeting House in Lilesville. The resto­ rations have been continuing projects of the Anson County Historical Society. Dr. H. G. Jones was the main speaker for the dedication ceremonies; Mr. Linn D. Garibaldi, president of the Anson group, welcomed dignitaries and guests. Taking part in the Lilesville program were the Reverend 0. M. Burck­ halter, pastor of the Lilesville Baptist Church (the congregation of which donated the meetinghouse to the society), Congressman A. Paul Kitchin, Lieutenant Governor H. Pat Taylor, Jr., and Representative Fred Mills. Par­ ticipants in the Wadesboro dedication, in addition to those mentioned above, were the Reverends Joseph Lash, Cherry Livingston, Ernest Page, James B. Sides, and H. Howard Smith. The oldest wing of the Boggan-Hammond House is thought to be the first house built in Wadesboro. Actually two houses, the original home was built by Captain Patrick Boggan in the late 1700s; the Alexander Little wing was built in the 1800s. The Boggan-H3mmond House was dedicated May 9; the Alexander Little wing is shown at the right.
