The board consists of 18 members appointed by the DMS director, who also chooses one member to serve as chair. Members include representatives from academic institutions, environmental organizations, technical professional organizations, NC state government agencies and local government agencies, and have expertise in diverse fields including agriculture, land management and preservation, flood mitigation, banking and transportation.
