Special Programs Special Programs Environmental Review Clearinghouse The State Environmental Review Clearinghouse allows for the evaluation of potential negative environmental impacts of proposed projects according to the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). Environmental documents prepared for SEPA compliance allow state government agencies to make informed decisions about whether, and under what the conditions, a project with potential adverse impacts should proceed. This is a public process that allows all views to be heard regarding the sufficiency of the impact analysis. NC License to Give Trust Fund The License to Give Trust Fund was created by N.C. Gen. Stat. § 20-7.4 to promote organ and tissue donation and health care decision making at life's end. Oregon, NC Inlet Task Force The Oregon Inlet Land Acquisition Task Force was created by statute for the purpose of determining, reviewing, and considering the State's options for acquiring the federal government's right, title, and interest in Oregon Inlet and the adjacent real property, including submerged lands. This Task Force studied how the State may preserve Oregon Inlet and how to develop long-term management solutions for preserving and enhancing the navigability of Oregon Inlet, which is both a critical transportation corridor and a critical source of commerce for the State's Outer Banks. NC Complete Count Commission Established through Executive Order 79, the Complete Count Commission worked to increase awareness and understanding of the 2020 Census and encourage the participation of North Carolinians through education and outreach with the goal of ensuring that accurate data is collected for the 2020 Census, particularly hard-to-reach populations and areas, through planning, outreach, local government involvement and community education. Justice for Sterilization Victims The NC Office of Justice for Sterilization Victims provides justice and compensate victims who were forcibly sterilized by the State of North Carolina. The office functions as a clearinghouse to assist victims of the former NC Eugenics Board program and thereby serves as the primary point of contact for victims, potential victims and the general public who are seeking guidance about North Carolina’s former sterilization laws and program. During 2011 and 2012, office staff also supported a separate Gubernatorial Task Force established under Executive Order 83.
