Joe’s now has a new page on the internet-web site. &quotCapt’s feedback and Activities&quot. .Check out out the Capt’s Remarks and Events about the proposed sulfer plant that is headed for the port unless of course we can cease it. There have been all the Spanish mackerel that you want just inside and exterior of the Beaufort Inlet. They are feeding on small glass minnows. so when casting lures at the Spanish you require to be casting the smallest lures that you can cast. Modest spec rigs and flies are working extremely nicely. Casting is in fact functioning better than trolling. Offshore fishing is genuinely choosing up as properly. There have been escalating figures of white marlin, sailfish and blue marlin caught in the final few days. The dolphin bite has picked up far too. Startiing to see a handful of a lot more gaffer dolphin and a lot of bailer dolphin.

Capt. Joe’s Responses and Upcoming Occasions

For those of you that have an interest in trying to keep the Morehead City, Beaufort, and Atlantic Seashore area an area that you would like to live and getaway, you may possibly be interested in what is likely on at the Morehead Town Port. PCS Phosphates is preparing to build a Sulfer melting facitliy correct there on the port residence. total with two, a hundred and fifty ft. smoke stacks that will be pumping out sulfer smoke. One of the poor points that has transpired is that this ongoing offer to build the sulfer plant has been likely on for above a 12 months, however the nearby residents and town official just learned about this on July 1st. Numerous permits have been issued for the development of the plant with no 1 having any knowledge that it was happening. Not to mention that there will now be a rotten egg smell hovering above all of Carteret Count, the uncooked or dry sulfer that will be brought in to the port is very explosive and flamable in it’s dry state. Considering that the military often merchants PETN explosives at the port, this could make for a quite unsafe predicament. The sulfer dust can ignite if the dust will get on the rail line and the practice rolls over it. This has took place in a couple of circumstances here in NC previously triggering big fires and a lot hurt to other services.

Not to point out that all of our companies and the ecosystems will experience from the drop out of the sulfer. Property values will drop and tax collections will drop as a outcome placing the complete county in a jam. Local corporations will experience from just the smell of rotten eggs hovering over the metropolitan areas, and the sulfer dust falling on all the autos and boats in the area. Just what a coastal resort region actually isn’t going to want, particularly in these financial occasions. Not to mention that Carteret County will not make a dime off of this plant ,the money will all go out of the county. We will make no money from the plant and it will not generate any regional careers, but what we will get are the adverse results and lost cash flow from the plant. WE don’t need to have this sulfer plant everywhere around Morehead Metropolis!
