The Emily and Richardson Preyer Buckridge Local Advisory Committee will meet at 10:30 a.m. Nov. 8 at the Tyrrell County Public Library in Columbia, N.C. The meeting is open to the public.
The reserve established a new local advisory committee this year, with members appointed by the secretary of the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources. The members were selected to represent a diversity of perspectives, including uses and topics related to the Buckridge reserve site, including traditional use, recreational use, and adjacent property owner.
The committee of local residents, partners and leaders will provide the N.C. Division of Coastal Management’s Coastal Reserve and National Estuarine Research Reserve staff with guidance and feedback regarding management of the reserve.
The N.C. Coastal Reserve and National Estuarine Research Reserve Program protects natural areas for education, research and compatible recreation. Since its creation in 1989, the program has preserved more than 41,000 acres of unique coastal environments at 10 sites along the coast.
