These NWPs will expire on March 18, 2017. The NWPs will protect the aquatic environment and the public interest while effectively authorizing activities that have minimal individual and cumulative adverse effects on the aquatic environment.

Hops are not essential to beer, but without hops beer would be a sickly sweet drink. Hops add bitter and aromatic notes that give a beer balance and serve as a preservative as well. Hops and beer are so closely associated that, with few exceptions, all beers contain hops, and all hops are destined for brewing.
The problem is that hops are a new crop to this region. Keen home brewers living in a variety of climates have grown hops by the trellisload for personal use, but hops' viability as a commercial crop is an unknown. The traditional hop-growing regions around the world are all at higher latitudes and are less humid than North Carolina. But with the right varieties and practices, could North Carolina growers overcome less-than-perfect conditions?
Up in the mountains, microbreweries a...

On the banks of the Hackensack River in Jersey City, 500 workers lift and weld steel beams near a pile of coal that stretches for half a football field.
They are building towers of filters at Public Service Enterprise Group's Hudson generating station, the only coal-burning plant in North Jersey and long the region's biggest producer of air pollution outside of cars and trucks. The filters promise to dramatically cut down on the barrage of toxic substances that leave the 500-foot smokestack every day.
