North Carolina's notification system for pollution spills hasn't caught up to modern times. The only public notice required for polluting our waterways is an outdated law that calls for polluters to send a press release and post an ad in a newspaper.
The public has the right to know about major pollution spills that impact our waterways as soon as possible, and through the technology the public uses today.
