Supporting preservation while realizing that an offroad vehicle ban could be detrimental to the economy of the Hatteras National Seashore area, the Outer Banks Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation says it believes that "a balance between access and preservation can be achieved."
The statement on the home page of the OBX Chapter's web site reads:
The Outer Banks Chapter implores all parties involved in this issue to find a balance between access, protection and preservation. We recommend managing access of these areas through a combination of permitting, limiting the number of vehicles, and closures when necessary to protect the migratory species that use this area seasonally. The Outer Banks Chapter of Surfrider Foundation supports protection and preservation, and in this unique situation does support the reasonable use of ORVs to allow public access to this area.
