The Pages Creek Stormwater and Restoration Plan is more than just a report; it is a comprehensive blueprint for revitalizing an essential waterway that supports our community and environment. In 2006 Pages Creek was designated as impaired by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality due to concerning levels of fecal bacteria affecting shellfish growing areas. This designation highlighted the urgent need for effective restoration strategies prompting the New Hanover Soil and Water Conservation District to target Pages Creek in their 5-Year Strategic Plan for improvements. Together we have the opportunity to transform this vital region. Our Watershed Restoration Plan serves as a roadmap to enhance water quality and ecological health ultimately striving to remove these impaired stream segments from the 303d water list. This is not just a plan; it is a living document that evolves with new data ensuring we remain adept in our efforts to improve the watershed. New Hanover County is committed to using innovative water volume reduction techniques to decrease stormwater runoff by 10 to 20%. Through targeted stormwater retrofits we aim to clean and infiltrate stormwater before it reaches the creek effectively mimicking natural drainage processes. This initiative will not only protect lives and properties from flooding but also enrich our urban landscapes and safeguard the integrity of our receiving water bodies. Importantly our approach directly addresses pathogenic pollution paving the way for healthier waterways. As we embark on the feasibility studythe next phase of this critical projectin April 2025 we invite you to be a part of this transformative journey. Your generous support can make a significant difference enabling us to restore Pages Creek and enhance the quality of life in our community. Together we can be champions of clean water thriving ecosystems and resilient neighborhoods. Join us in making a lasting impact on our environment and future. Donate today and help us turn the vision of a revitalized Pages Creek into reality! 4b. **Help Us Restore Vital Watersheds: Become a Champion for Aquatic Life!** The Black River Watershed a crucial ecological and economic resource is in need of your support. CFRC&D is embarking on an ambitious project to redesign and replace up to five culverts which will restore two miles of vital stream channels for each culvert. This transformative initiative will enhance stream connectivity and reclaim historic migratory fish habitats boosting biodiversity and ensuring healthier ecosystems for generations to come. In partnership with the Southeast Aquatic Resources Partnership SARP and Moffatt & Nichol M&N we conducted an in-depth survey of 200 culverts across Bladen and Pender Counties. Through the innovative SARP Barrier Prioritization tool we identified the top five most critical barriers to aquatic connectivity. Our expert hydraulic engineers at M&N are now ready to carry out detailed analyses of these key culverts paving the way for their replacement. With a remarkable grant of $770,000 from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation received over three funding cycles we are ready to make significant strides in restoring our waterways. However to maximize the impact of this project and bolster the resilience of many rural communities within the Black River watershed particularly in mitigating the effects of flooding we need the support of dedicated donors like you. Join us in this vital mission to revitalize our natural habitats and contribute to the sustainability of local communities. Your generous gift will not only help restore aquatic life but will also play a pivotal role in enhancing the well-being of all communities that depend on our precious water resources. Together lets make a lasting difference! 4c. **Join Us in Protecting the Waccamaw River Watershed** We invite you to be a part of a transformative initiative that addresses one of our most pressing environmental challenges: catastrophic flooding along the Waccamaw River Watershed. Through the Waccamaw River Watershed Drainage Study we aim to create a comprehensive strategic plan to identify and tackle the factors contributing to this alarming issue. This essential study will focus on key areas such as establishing benchmarks for problematic zones prioritizing necessary capital improvements and mitigating economic vulnerabilities. We will evaluate obstacles to effective water flow including compromised infrastructures like undersized or malfunctioning culverts sediment accumulation and debris that hampers the rivers natural flow. To turn this critical vision into reality we seek support through the North Carolina Resilient Coastal Communities Program grant. Your contributions will provide the vital funds and resources needed to conduct this comprehensive study ensuring that we can implement strategic follow-up projects aimed at reducing flooding and enhancing the watersheds flow. The positive impact of alleviating flooding and improving water flow in the Waccamaw River Watershed could yield economic benefits exceeding one billion dollars rejuvenating our communities and livelihood. With your help we can address these urgent flooding and flow challenges safeguarding our environment and economy for current and future generations. Your support is not just an investment in infrastructure; it is a commitment to resilience and sustainability for our local communities. Together lets pave the way for a brighter safer future along the Waccamaw River Watershed.
