The Down East Journal (04/27-28/12)

New Bern, NC – Mysterious foam collecting on manure pits on hog farms in the Midwest has triggered explosions, resulting in millions of dollars in damage. This week on the Down East Journal, we talk to officials to see if any of eastern North Carolina's hog farms are at risk. And, L.C. Morris reports on the controversy over Amendment One. Plus, a new, experimental material is being tested in an oyster sanctuary in the Neuse River.
