Water Policy on Open Net TV, June 22

One of the after-effects of North Carolina's drought in 2007 and 2008 was a revitalized public discussion about how we manage our water resources. Tune in Tuesday evening to talk about a basic, community necessity - water. We'll be looking at the kinds of issues that are being addressed now, the issues most likely to arise in the next two to five years, and we'll give you an opportunity to better understand the roles of the principals in this on-going policy discussion. Here to talk with you will be Bill Holman, Director of State Policy for the Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions at Duke University; Robin Smith, Assistant Secretary for the Environment with the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources and Erin Wynia, North Carolina League of Municipalities Policy Analyst with a primary focus in environmental issues.
