Missing information:


sorry....
1) Where is "here"?


sampson county, roseboro town planning/ag zone, nc

2) Your stream is a "run off"? You mean, it runs INTO the river? Yes, or
no?


no, doesn't run into, it branches off the river, excess from the river
runs into the ditch, it runs thru the pasture, and dead-ends on the other
end of the pasture, about 4 acres outside of the pasture.

3) What water does the town claim is being polluted? The river? Drinking
water? Does the town get its drinking water from the river?


I have no clue, can't them to elaborate as to what is *polluted*. Have
requested to see the report myself, but to no avail...

4) If the town does NOT get its water supply from the river, where DOES
the supply come from?


Town water comes from some tributaries of the cape fear river. The cape
fear and south rivers eventually meet, but that is counties away. So i
don't think that our water would have much to do with it. I don't know,
maybe I am thinking too small frame...



OK. Step #1 is to call this governmental office:
http://www.enr.state.nc.us/

You need to find out if it's true that you "don't have the right to see the
environmental impact report". If you speak to someone who sounds unsure of
themselves, ask for their supervisor. If you continue having problems, tell
them your next phone call will be to the news departments of local TV
stations.

Step #2 is to drive around and see who, if anyone, lives where the stream
dead-ends. If nobody lives there, and maybe has a well for drinking water,
then something stinks really bad here.
