    Maryland’s Lower Choptank River Cultural Resource Inventory by Ralph E. Eshelman and Carl W. Scheffel, Jr. “So long as the tides shall ebb and flow in Choptank River.” From Philemon Downes will, Hillsboro, circa 1796 U.S. Geological Survey Quadrangle 7.5 Minute Topographic maps covering the Lower Choptank River (below Caroline County) include: Cambridge (1988), Church Creek (1982), East New Market (1988), Oxford (1988), Preston (1988), Sharp Island (1974R), Tilghman (1988), and Trappe (1988). Introduction The Choptank River is Maryland’s longest river of the Eastern Shore. The Choptank River was ranked as one of four Category One rivers (rivers and related corridors which possess a composite resource value with greater than State signific ance) by the Maryland Rivers Study Wild and Scenic Rivers Program in 1985. It has been stated that “no river in the Chesapeake region has done more to shape the character and society of the Eastern Shore than the Choptank.” It has been called “the noblest watercourse on the Eastern Shore.” Name origin: “Chaptanck” is probably a composition of Algonquian words meaning “it flows back strongly,” referring to the river’s tidal changes1 Geological Change and Flooded Valleys The Choptank River is the largest tributary of the Chesapeake Bay on the eastern shore and is therefore part of the largest estuary in North America. This Bay and all its tributaries were once non-tidal fresh water rivers and streams during the last ice age (15,000 years ago) when sea level was over 300 feet below present. As climate warmed and glaciers melted northward sea level rose, and the Choptank valley and Susquehanna valley became flooded.

    2018 Maryland Oyster Restoration Update Progress in the Choptank Complex (Harris Creek, Little Choptank River, and Tred Avon River Oyster Sanctuaries) June 2019 The Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement, which guides the work of the Chesapeake Bay Program, commits state and federal partners to “restore native oyster habitat and populations in 10 Bay tributaries Harris Creek by 2025, and ensure their protection.” This reinforces the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Oyster Restoration Master Plan and Maryland’s Oyster Restoration and Tred Avon Aquaculture Development Plan. To achieve this outcome, the U.S. Army Corps of Little Engineers’ Baltimore District (USACE), the National Choptank Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the St. Mary’s Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Manokin and the Oyster Recovery Partnership (ORP) formed the Maryland Oyster Restoration Interagency Work- group (hereafter, Workgroup) under the auspices of the Sustainable Fisheries Goal Implementation Team (GIT) of the Chesapeake Bay Program. The Workgroup, with guidance from consulting sci- entists and the public, coordinates large-scale oyster restoration in selected Maryland tributaries.
