I’m in the Town of Clyde. Can you inspect the neighbor’s bad work?

By joint resolutions between the Town and County Boards (and with the endorsement of the North Carolina Sediment Commission), our local program does have jurisdiction over matters of erosion and sediment control in the Towns of Clyde and Maggie Valley.  However, Waynesville and Canton are still under the jurisdiction of NCDENR, Land Quality Section.
