nc sen. michael lee, r-new hanover, sponsored a bill in the nc senate for removal of "the rocks" between zeke's and smith islands on the southern tip of new hanover county, which became part of n.c. house bill 97, the 2015 appropriations act. while nc senate legislators state that its purpose is for "ecosystem restoration and protection of navigational safety", a majority of regional institutions and local governments found this hard to believe. "what i smell in this is that we're not being leveled with about what's really going on," said larry cahoon, a professor and oceanographer at the university of north carolina wilmington. "ecologically, i haven't heard an argument about what's broken that needs fixing." the "removal of the rocks" initiative by the nc senate is seen by many cape fear area observers as another ploy at siting an international port at the property that the ncspa still owns just west of "the rocks". the ncit proposal continues to be rejected by local governments (by their unanimous rejection of the "removal of the rocks" proposal). as of early 2018, nothing seems to have resulted from rep. lee's proposal.
