Relocate = return. All animals have a homing instinct. He will return trap educated unless he finds someone else's chicken coop to raid.

Wildlife Taken Without a Depredation Permit:
North Carolina Statute allows landholders to take wildlife at any time with firearms without a permit or license while it is in the act of destroying their property.
Exceptions to this include certain state or federally protected wildlife species such as endangered, threatened, or species of special concern or most species of birds except Upland Game Birds (see Definition of Terms), pigeons, starlings, English sparrows, blackbirds, crows and grackles.
Wildlife taken without a permit must be disposed of in a "safe and sanitary manner" on the property where they were taken.
The animals may only be taken on the property of the landholder.
If the carcasses are transported off the property, or there is a need to utilize the meat for food purposes, or a manner of take other than firearms is required (see exception below), a Depredation Permit will be required.
If you are trapping an animal inside your residential structure (house, apartment, etc.) and plan to release it or dispose of it on the property where taken, no permit is required.
The killing and method of disposition of wildlife taken for depredation without a permit, shall be reported to the Wildlife Resources Commission within 24 hours following the time of such killing.

I also remember from a long ago reading of portions of the law in NC that the depredation permit has a second name on it that of a certified animal control agent and that is the party that must actually perform any relocation.

So I can contact an animal control officer to come and get him? I have not done anything with him yet, so is this what I should do?
OK, after contacting animal control, I will be issued (free of charge) a trapping permit for any future critters. But with this particular one, for a $50 fee, he will be picked up. Sheesh, who'd a thunk it? I always step in the biggest piles of doo doo.

To bad you didn't just inquire without saying you already had one! Glad you got it though. Set your trap for more.
Good for you! Now just Shhhhhh! about it.
Call them back and tell them he escaped and get your permit for next time. then call them tomorrow and say you re-captured him! Problem solved!!
.22 tween the eyes. Problem solved.
It is best that before anyone sets out a trap that they have a very good handle on what the law allows them to do and if any permits are required.
Then you don't get backed into a corner, relocation is never a good idea despite what the law may allow, you are just making your problem someone else's problem this is before any complications tossed in by states wanting any relocation handled by the "experts".
Just keeping up with idiot changes in one state's laws can be a major challenge since what applies to any given situation may actually be scattered in a statue book.
chickensioux,
Doo doo is a common expression for what passed as the law in most state's. Sometimes it almost appears to be set up to entrap.
