Protecting North Carolina Shores, Wetlands, and Waters

While I am not a Marina Scientist or a 30 year Seaman I do believe My Brothers and Sisters of the 70’s might have a hard time explaining how a High School Graduate can solve a problem that the Entire World of Experts seem to be unable to fix. Because why I can’t tell President Obama or the Leadership of BP how to deal with the Unauthorized Discharge of Oil from the Deep South Site or Louisiana how to protect the Mississippi Delta using off the shelve products available to the Common Citizen. Nevertheless, as a North Carolinian I can voice My Personal Opinion to My Elected Officials on how I would go about protecting North Carolina Shores, Wetlands, and Waters from Man-made and/or Natural Disasters.

For why it may be hard to believe that some fish net and plastic could hold back the force of the Ocean, knowing that a cost effective reliable temporary seawall system could be quickly deployed to capture, contain, and control Americas’ Waterways out of Plastic Netting I do believe the next major oil spill or discharge will be looked at in a whole new light by everyone. Since why I know that My Cajun and Gulf Friends cannot use the fact that the Deep South Leak could have been easily contained with the slight modification of an Inflatable Jungle Gym on hand or the Stockholders lose of Dividends due to the fact that BP did not have the necessary Societal Tool to deploy a containment field within the first mile of the oil plume. I do believe one of the conditions of the Civil and Criminal Settlement will be that Mankinds’ Engineers will learn the most cost effective reliable method in erecting a preeminent permanent barriers and temporary seawalls to protect Americas’ Investment in the Gulf of Mexico and Her Coastlines from the Mistakes and Wrath of Man and Nature.

However, I can ask and suggest to My Community Elders and Peers what they think about the Coast Guard Reserve be given the task of designing, constructing, and deploying a temporary and permanent seawall along the North Carolina Coast. For seeing that a U-shape Plastic Net could be made deep and wide enough to withstand the pressure of oil spills and discharges effects, I do believe the idea that the same technology can be used to control the effects of a Hurricane will send Americas’ Engineers enough work to keep Labor and Management busy for the next 20 years or so.

And though I know the Mother of Necessity says that we only have to deal with limiting the damages and liabilities of oil spills and discharges. In working on a Comprehensive Plan for the next 100 years I do believe the President of the United States and Congress has the power to insist that the Insurance Institutions look long range to see that Home Owners, Communities, States, and Federal Government and Society can be served by Inflatable Dikes, Seawalls, and Shipping Lanes made from Plastic Netting.
