  • The Course of the Corsica: a Report on Restoration
    The Course of the Corsica: A Report on Restoration December 2020 The Corsica River Conservancy (CRC) works to develop and maintain a constituency to restore and preserve the Corsica River and its surrounding lands through direct action, partnerships, and enhanced environmental awareness. This publication, developed by CRC, provides a history of a 15-year effort to restore and conserve the River and its watershed, the importance of doing so, and challenges we see going forward. Contributions to the pamphlet were also made by Maryland’s Department of the Environment and Department of Natural Resources, Town of Centreville, ShoreRivers, Queen Anne’s County, Washington College Center for Environment and Society, and Eastern Shore Land Conservancy. Board of Directors Frank DiGialleonardo, President Susan Buckingham Katherine Schinasi, Vice President Gayle Jayne Liz Hammond, Treasurer Ed Nielsen Elaine Studley, Secretary Debbie Pusey Rachel Rhodes Jeff Smith The Corsica River is a tidal estuary of the Chester River on the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay, across the bay from Washington DC and Baltimore, Maryland. The Corsica is entirely located in Queen Anne’s County, Maryland. Map courtesy of: Chesapeake Bay Program https://www.chesapeakebay.net/ Executive Summary The restoration of the Corsica is entering its fifteenth year. It continues to serve as a model of comprehensive and sustained effort with important lessons learned. Extensive improvements to nutrient management, pollution control, and stormwater management appear to have led to measurable improvement in water quality and habitat. Yet, in the main stem of the River, sustained water clarity, restored underwater grass habitat, and reduced algae are yet to be realized outcomes.
