Gov. Easley Appoints New MFC Member
Governor Mike Easley appointed a new member to the North Carolina Marine Fisheries Commission last week after a review of the residency requirements determined that the state was not following its own guidelines. The NC MFC is required by statute to include at least one resident recreational fisherman from each of the three coastal regions - the northeast, the central, and the southeast. Marshall Williford, a recreational fisherman from Edenton, was appointed to the northeast coastal region to replace commissioner Charlie Adams who resigned last month after the discrepancy was discovered. Williford enjoys inshore fishing for speckled trout and flounder off the Outer Banks and will be an important advocate for recreational anglers. More on the appointment is available from the Outer Banks Sentinel; information on the NC MFC can be found on the Division of Marine Fisheries website.
