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.
自1999年9月那场声名远扬的风暴以来,“弗洛伊德”这个名字对北卡罗来纳州东部的许多人来说有了新的联想:破坏和环境灾难。1999年11月12日,来自州和联邦机构以及当地大学的代表齐聚北卡罗来纳州三角研究园的美国国立环境卫生科学研究所(NIEHS)园区,讨论弗洛伊德飓风过后洪水对环境健康的影响。除了确定潜在的长期人类健康和生态问题外,与会者还希望制定用于恢复北卡罗来纳州东部的战略、合作项目和伙伴关系。
