The river basin covers a diverse landscape from Blue Ridge Mountain headwaters to the expansive Charlotte metropolitan area, crossing much of the Piedmont region and including parts of the unusual geology and ecology in the sandy Uwharrie Mountains. Thirty-nine percent (39%) of all rivers and streams, and thirty-six percent (36%) of all lakes and reservoirs within the Yadkin River basin are listed as “impaired” by the NC Division of Water Quality (NC DWQ), meaning they fail to meet water quality standards established by the US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) and the NC DWQ. The Yadkin River is also known for its outstanding resource waters, primarily found in the Uwharrie National Forest in Montgomery County and the headwater tributaries of Wilkes and Surry Counties.

    Section C: Chapter 1 Current Water Quality Initiatives 1.1 Workshop Summaries In April 2002, five workshops were conducted by DWQ in the Yadkin-Pee Dee River basin at Elkin, Winston-Salem, Uwharrie, Salisbury and Fairview. There were 149 people in attendance representing a variety of interests. Figure C-1 presents an estimate of the percent of total attendance which represented various groups/interests, based on information recorded on attendance sheets. Figure C-2 presents the total attendance for each workshop by category.

Participants at each workshop also gave brief presentations about local water quality initiatives. Workshop attendees were asked to discuss the following questions in small groups: 1. What are the main threats to water quality in the Yadkin-Pee Dee River basin? 2. Where are the problem areas or waters? 3. What recommendations do you have for addressing these problems/waters? 4. What local agencies or organizations should be involved in addressing the problems?

The inventory identifies 14 sites of natural significance at the national, state, or regional level, as determined by the criteria established by the NC NHP. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The following citizens of Cabarrus and Mecklenburg Counties provided assistance in the survey, either formally on the Advisory Committee or as interested individuals: Dr. John Benbow, Ken Couch, Howard Eury, John A.

Of the monitored waters, 29 percent are supporting and 65 percent Anson, Cabarrus, Iredell, are impaired. New impairments corresponded with an increase in number of sample Mecklenburg, Rowan, Stanley, sites, indicating as more monitoring is done more water quality problems will likely Union be detected. The network of ambient monitoring sites in the Rocky River watershed MUNICIPALITIES indicate that turbidity and nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) are notably higher Albemarle, Charlotte, in this area than in other parts of the Yadkin – Pee Dee River basin. Fecal coliform China Grove, Concord, bacteria, iron, and copper are also pollutants of concern in this watershed. Iron and Cornelius, Davidson, Gold copper occur naturally in the soils of this region and further investigation is needed Hill, Harrisburg, Huntersville, to determine the groundwater contribution of these metals to surface waters. Other Indian Trail, Kannapolis, possible sources include nonpoint source runoff from urban areas and waste land- Lake Park, Landis, Locust, application sites.

  • North Carolina Department of Transportation Project Development and Environmental Analysis Branch
    North Carolina Department of Transportation Project Development and Environmental Analysis Branch Citizens Informational Workshop I-85, from I-485 to NC 73 Mecklenburg and Cabarrus Counties October 30, 2007 TIP PROJECT I-3803 B CITIZENS INFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP Proposed Improvements to I-85 Mecklenburg and Cabarrus Counties TIP Number I-3803 B PURPOSE OF THE CITIZENS INFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP The purpose of this workshop is to involve the public in the project development process and to present the alternates under consideration for the proposed widening of Interstate 85. Public involvement is an integral part of the North Carolina Department of Transportation’s project development process. The concerns of citizens and interest groups are considered during project development studies. Often, additional project alternatives are studied or recommended alternatives are changed based on comments received from the public and/or local officials. NCDOT realizes individuals living close to a proposed project want to be informed of the possible effects of the project on their homes and businesses. However, exact information may not be available at this stage of the project development process. For example, design work is necessary before the actual right of way limits can be established. This type of detailed information will be available at a later date. The purpose of this workshop is to receive your comments before final design decisions are made. Written comments on this project may be left with NCDOT representatives at the workshop or mailed to the address below.
