Staff from the Division of Marine Fisheries spent part of their Thanksgiving week cleaning up Carrot Island, part of the Rachel Carson component of the N.C. National Estuarine Research Reserve. Using three boats, the group of 13 DMF employees collected about 1,200 pounds of debris from the site. See more pictures at the Marine Fisheries website.
