SAV bed perimeter information was digitized and stored in a computerized data base. Ground truth information was obtained from the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the University of Maryland Horn Point Environmental Laboratories, the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments, the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, Harford Community College, Essex Community College SAV Research Group of Baltimore County, National Park Service, Assateague Island, and the College of William and MaryNirginia Institute of Marine Science/School of Marine Science. Citizen support via the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Chesapeake Bay Foundation provided additional ground truth information. In 1991, the Chesapeake Bay had 25,623 hectares of SAV, compared to 24,296 hectares in 1990, with 2,158 hectares (8.4%), 11,664 hectares (45.5%), and 11,802 hectares (46.1%) occurring in the Upper, Middle, and Lower Bay zones, respectively (Figs. 1, 2, and 3). In 1991 seventy-eight percent (1,684 hectares) of the SAV within the Upper Bay zone was located in the Susquehanna Flats (Section 1). Eight species of SAV were documented by ground truth surveys in this section, with Myriophyllum spicatum being dominant. A recently introduced exotic species, Hydrilla verticillata, was found in the Flats but occurred in small isolated beds. Overall abundance of SAV declined from the 1990 (1,773 hectares) level, but the density of beds increased slightly from 1990. Eighty-nine percent of all SAV beds in the Flats were classified as very sparse (0-10% coverage), and 7% of beds were classified as dense (70-100% coverage).

  • No-Discharge Zones for Vessel Sewage in Maryland and Virginia
    This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 05/11/2021 and available online at federalregister.gov/d/2021-09957, and on govinfo.gov 6560-50-P ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY [FRL 10021-74-Region 3] Clean Water Act: No-Discharge Zones for Vessel Sewage in Maryland and Virginia AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ACTION: Notice–final determination. SUMMARY: On behalf of the State of Maryland, the Secretary of the Maryland Department of Natural Resources requested that the Regional Administrator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 3 approve a no-discharge zone for thirteen water bodies in Anne Arundel County, Maryland pursuant to the Clean Water Act. After review of Maryland’s application, EPA determined that adequate facilities for the safe and sanitary removal and treatment of sewage from all vessels are reasonable available for all thirteen waterbodies within Anne Arundel County. The application is available upon request from EPA (at the email address below). DATES: This approval is effective upon the date of publication in the Federal Register on [INSTERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ferry Akbar Buchanan, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency – Region III. Telephone: (215) 814-2570; email address: [email protected]. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to Clean Water Act section 312(f)(3), if any state determines that the protection and enhancement of the quality of some or all of the state’s waters require greater environmental protection, the state may designate the waters as a vessel sewage no-discharge zone. However, the state may not establish the no-discharge zone until EPA has determined that adequate pumpout facilities for the safe and sanitary removal and treatment of sewage from all vessels are reasonably available for the proposed waters.

They are confined to a brief period of great excitement in Baltimore, viz, after the riot of April 19, 1861, when Federal troops were attacked by the mob while being marched through the City streets, up to May 13th of that year, when General Butler, with a large body of troops occupied Federal Hill, after which Baltimore was substantially under control of the 1 Some months before his death in 1942 the late Charles McHenry Howard (a grandson of Charles Howard, president of the Board of Police in 1861) placed the papers here printed in the Editor's hands for examination, and offered to write an introduction if the Committee on Publications found them acceptable for the Magazine. Owing to the extraordinary events related and the revelation of an episode unknown in Baltimore history, Mr. Howard's proposal was promptly accepted.
