Claridge Promises Probe Of Big N.C. Forest Fire
North Carolina officials plan a probe into a major forest fire tied to Claridge operations with a focus on contract terms and royalty rates. The mineral resources committee debated a 30 cent per ton FOB royalty or 2 percent of value, weighing Florida ilmenite precedent against state practice. The panel adjourned until this afternoon to resume rate discussions while other committee actions included crab fisheries boundaries and a potential May 1 to Nov 1 crab pot ban impacting shrimping.
