Welcome
The N.C. Water Rights Coalition is a coalition of hundreds of North Carolina business people and concerned citizens who have joined this state-wide effort to inform people of the critical issues concerning water rights that affect all North Carolinians. This is a grassroots initiative funded by donations from members of the Coalition.
We are advocating for the same rights to our water that 33 other states currently enjoy, including our neighbors in South Carolina. Chief among these beliefs is that we, the residents of North Carolina, are the best stewards for our water rather than private firms who use it primarily for their financial benefit. We detail the history of water rights in the United States to explain what has happened on this issue and what can occur in the future for North Carolina via regular updates in news releases, blogs and advertising.
Our educational efforts beyond this Web site include printing and distributing materials to our fellow citizens, as well as our legislators and other governing entities to make sure the people's voice is heard about this issue. We employ the knowledge and advice of professional water rights experts from universities and the private sector to help North Carolinians understand the licensing process regarding our water resources and what steps we can and should take to address our needs.
The officers for the N.C. Water Rights Coalition are as follows:
