Coalition Submits Nine Comment Letters
On June 16, 2014, a brand-new Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement was signed in order to establish goals and outcomes for the restoration of the Bay. Since the signing of the Watershed Agreement, the Bay Program’s Goal Implementation Teams have been constructing Management Strategies in order to outline the necessary steps to achieve the Agreement’s objectives. The Management Strategies cover various restoration programs and are supported with two-year work plans, including specific commitments, in order to reach the 2025 goals outlined in the Agreement.
