    The Outer Banks Voice – Pedestrian killed in Kitty Hawk accident

    Online Niel Posted on

    On Wednesday, October 30, at approximately 8:46 p.m., members of the Kitty Hawk Police Department were called to investigate a vehicle-pedestrian traffic accident at the intersection of N Croatan Highway and White Street. An unidentified man was struck by a Honda Accord while walking his dogs and crossing N Croatan Highway at White Street. The male pedestrian and two dogs were pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Honda Accord, an adult male, remained at the scene and is cooperating with the investigation. No criminal charges have been filed at this time and the circumstances of the accident are still under investigation. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and families of those affected by this tragic event.

    PUBLIC NOTICE

    Former Buxton Naval Facility

    Previously used defense site

    The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) will host a presentation to provide an update on the ongoing response and to present information on a restoration advisory board. The presentation will be followed by an open session.

    The Buxton Naval Facility Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS) property was used by the US Navy as a submarine monitoring station. The US Coast Guard later used the property until it was returned to the National Park Service. USACE is conducting a response to remove visibly oil-affected soil and conduct confirmatory soil sampling in areas along the beach and dunes that have reported odors and sheen.

    Further actions include complete soil and groundwater sampling in the project area to delineate the nature and extent of oil contamination.

    USACE will hold the meeting on November 4, 2024, from 19:00 to 21:00 at the Fessenden Center located at 46830 NC Highway 12, Buxton, NC 27920.
