Coastal energy transportation study. phase 2. volume 2. an assessment of potential impacts of energy-related transportation developments on North Carolina's coastal zone
1981
To examine the impacts of the proposed coastal energy development, three OCS-coal exporting siting counties (Brunswick, Carteret, and New Hanover) and eight transportation counties were identified. Baseline data describing the economic, social-demographic are provided. Additional baseline data are provided for five peat counties. Examination of potential impacts of locating temporary OCS support bases assumes two alternative scenarios - a low resource estimate and a high resource estimate. Given the proposed coal tonnage, estimates of rail and ship traffic are used to identify economic, social-demographic, recreational, environmental, and fiscal impacts for terminal siting counties and the rail transportation corridor counties.
