ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS
PRBSBNTATION BY DR. TIN MEAD, CHAIRMAN OF TSB CATAWBA RIVER
CORRIDOR STUDYS Dr. Mead said the study committee has met for
about a year every other week. There are about 30 members, with 12
to 15 coming regularly to the meetings. They have discussed as
widely as they couldthe issues that affect the Catawba River and
the entire corridor. They have included economic issues as well as
environmental issues. They have conducted public meetings in all
the counties that are on the Catawba River. Citizens have come to
those meetings, Mead said.
The group has identified three core issues, which are:
1. Water quality.
2. Land Use & Resource Development.
3. Cooperative Community Planning Mechanism.
Dr. Mead said the next step is to appoint members to the task
forces for each of the core issues stated. Chairman Haire inquired
if they have nominations for the board to consider this evening or
would they be sent in later. Dr. Mead replied they would send
categorical suggestions and the board would then come up with names
from each of the categories for all three committees at a later
time. They want to include people with as many different
interests as possible on the committees, and the list will be sent
in the near future, he said.
Chairman Haire thanked Dr. Meade for coming to make his
presentation.
