Panel reviews 1976 UNC Sea Grant projects Twenty-six projects proposed by the UNC Sea Grant Program for 1976 were reviewed September 30 and October 1 by a panel of marine scientists and specialists from federal agencies, universities and the private sector. This year's site visit was held at Atlantic Beach. Now approaching its sixth year in North Caro- lina, the Sea Grant Program proposed coastal and marine research and advisory services projects totaling $985,600. Funds for Sea Grant are awarded by the Commerce Department's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and matched by the Department of Administration. Federal funds make up 67 per cent of the program budget. Approved funding will be announced later. In opening remarks Dr. E. Walton Jones, UNC associate vice president for research and public service programs, welcomed the site panel and spoke to the University's interest in an ongoing Sea Grant Program. Dr. Ernie Carl, director of the Office of Marine Affairs, expressed the state's support for a Sea Grant Program directed to pressing needs in the coastal area. Secretary of Administration Bruce Lentz, in after-dinner remarks, reiterated the state's sup- port for Sea Grant.

Another phase of the study will examine the value of coliform bacteria as an indi- cator of disease-carrying bacteria in seafood. NCSU food scientist George Giddings will col- lect data on nutrients and chemical contaminants in North Carolina seafoods and will seek to deter- mine how processing changes levels of nutrients and contaminants. Such information should help assure the safety and optimal nutritional value of processed seafoods. budget decisions, Sea Grant must addre
