A North Carolina county manager is urging citizens to increase the opposition to a proposed Navy landing field.
The Daily Advance of Elizabeth City reported Monday that Camden
County Manager Randell Woodruff suggested that local residents go
door-to-door to explain why they feel the proposed landing field is a bad idea for the county.
The Navy is studying two sites in North Carolina and three in Virginia for a proposed field where carrier jets can practice landings.
Woodruff says the county already has a good start in opposing the project because it has hired a law firm and a public relations
representative.
