title: Evaluating Floyd's effect on health in eastern North Carolina.
abstract: Since the now-famous storm of September 1999, the name "Floyd" has taken on new associations for many people in eastern North Carolina: devastation and environmental catastrophe. On 12 November 1999, representatives from state and federal agencies and local universities met on the NIEHS campus in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, to discuss the environmental health implications of the floods following Hurricane Floyd. In addition to determining the potential long-term human health and ecological problems, participants hoped to develop strategies, collaborations, and partnerships to be used in the restoration of eastern North Carolina.
