		Running along the entire coast of North Carolina, serving as a buffer against the Atlantic, is a long chain of barrier islands (the Outer Banks), with constantly shifting sand dunes, from which project three famous capes—Hatteras, Lookout, and Fear.
		Within the year North Carolina repealed the act ceding the land; however, the cession was reenacted in 1789, and that territory became (1796) the state of Tennessee.
		The nationwide agrarian revolt reached North Carolina in the Granger movement (1875), the Farmers’ Alliance (1887), and the Populist party, which united with the Republicans to carry the state elections in 1894 and 1896.

		AT A PARTICULAR BEND on eastern North Carolina's Swift Creek, the stream banks rise from the water in towering palisades of beech and mountain laurel.
		For activists nationwide, Swift Creek provides a painful case study on the increasing politicization of environmental protections, and what conservation organizations must do to keep powerful special interest groups from dismantling these protections one by one.
		In many respects, Swift Creek in eastern North Carolina is a nondescript Piedmont stream similar to countless others that lattice North America's southeastern woodlands.

		The state government deficits were created by the Democrats by increased spending, in conjunction with decreased taxation of their corporate pets, but the local governments are paying the costs in terms of withheld tax receipts.

		The Swift/Sandy Creek has even been heralded by biologists as one of the most important streams to empty into the eastern seaboard of the United States because it harbors sixteen rare and endangered species.
		This tract of land is woodland along the Cypress Creek approximately five miles north of the confluence with the mainstem Tar River which is considered nationally significant due to the number of rare aquatic species and relatively pristine water quality.

	The Flower Swift Militia Company (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Chestnut Creek community was probably fairly self-sufficient and almost everyone farmed and had a moderate amount of wealth.
		Some members of the Swift company did refuse to fight before 1779 and their names (David Fulton, Samuel Cox, Jeremiah Clonch) appear in the records as such in September, 1779 which is coincidentally when the Swift company was formed.
		There is no evidence that Swift's company, as such, participated in the major battles in North Carolina, but several individual members of the company did go to North Carolina and joined with old neighbors there in the American army.

	Swift Creek water quality still a concern (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Many environmentalists remain concerned about development along the Swift Creek River basin despite a compromise reached in the legislature that protects the upper two-thirds of the river.
		The compromise upgrades the environmental classification for the upper two-thirds of the Swift Creek watershed to an outstanding resource water zone – the state's highest ranking – and adds restrictions to any future structural development.
		The lower third of the Swift Creek watershed from Red Oak Road east to the Tar-Pamlico River, just north of Tarboro, was not upgraded in the compromise, which disappointed many environmentalists.

		This year House Bill 566 (HB 566) was passed in the NC House (without even going through the Environment Committee of which one of the bill's two cosponsors is the chair) to overturn the designation and strip the protections from this special stream.
		The ORW designation applied to Swift Creek prohibits new wastewater discharges in the watershed; prohibits new discharging landfills in the watershed; requires that new underground storage tanks be double-hulled if close to the creek; and requires that new developments in the watershed control stormwater runoff.

	Environmental Defense - Press Release: Gov. Easley Signs Bill That Weakens Protection For Swift Creek
		Environmental groups had encouraged the governor to veto the bill and thereby ensure that protections remained in place for the entire creek.
		"Swift Creek is among the highest quality streams in the state and has been relatively free of the pollution and excessive development that have plagued watersheds throughout North Carolina, particularly in urban areas," said Heather Jacobs, the Pamlico-Tar Riverkeeper.
		"Runoff from development and other sources is the number one cause of water pollution in North Carolina," said Elizabeth Ouzts, director of N.C. Public Interest Research Group.

	Deep Creek tubing in North Carolina near Bryson City
		From the parking lot at the Deep Creek trailhead, two miles north of Bryson City, you carry your inner tube upstream about a mile into the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
		This is a wild, bouncy ride that often separates the rider from the tube, especially when the water is swift from spring rains.
		Finally, because Deep Creek is a cool mountain stream, you should bring towels and a change of dry clothes.

		The Wake County Board of Commissioners adopted the Swift Creek Land Management Plan on April 19, 1990.
		Session Law 1998-192, adopted by the North Carolina General Assembly on October 22, 1998, prohibits Wake County (and other parties to the Plan) from adopting any development ordinance or grating any development permit that would be inconsistent with the standards and provisions of the Swift Creek Land Management Plan adopted on April 19, 1990.
		It is believed that there are two competing objectives that affect land use patterns and development standards within the Swift Creek watershed: the protection of water quality, and the logical extension of urban development.

		The Falls leucogneiss (FL) is an elongate, metamorphosed and deformed, magnetite-bearing leucogranitic pluton of Late Proterozoic age that intrudes gneissic rocks of the Raleigh terrane in the eastern Piedmont of North Carolina.
		Its western edge lies along the Late Paleozoic Nutbush Creek fault zone, and it is characterized by a pervasive, NNE-trending, subhorizontal stretching lineation and a strong aeromagnetic signature.
		Today a small dam remains at the Lassiter site on Crabtree Creek, while larger dams have been constructed on Swift Creek, Walnut Creek, and the Neuse River, to serve recreational and water-supply needs.
