The N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program
(EEP) combines the N.C. Wetlands Restoration
Program (WRP), an existing wetlands-restoration
initiative by the N.C. Department of
Environment and Natural Resources
(NCDENR), with ongoing efforts by the N.C.
Department of Transportation (NCDOT) to
offset unavoidable environmental impacts from
transportation-infrastructure improvements. The 2003-2004 Annual Report offers highlights and accomplishments from the programs' activities, mitigation requirements, program costs, total progress and results from program projects, and a look towards the future year.
