  • Maryland's Lower Choptank River Cultural Resource Inventory
    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.

  • 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.

Salmon, for the months of dedicated research, mapping, and analysis that led to the production of this important study. In all, more than 35 pro- fessionals, including professors and students representing six universities, American Indian representatives, consultants, public agency representatives, and community leaders contributed to this report. Each person brought an extraordinary depth of knowledge, keen insight and a personal devotion to the project. We are especially grateful for the generous financial support that we received from the following private foundations, organizations and corporate partners: The Morris & Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation, The Clay- ton Fund, Inc., Colcom Foundation, The Conservation Fund, Lockheed Martin, the Richard King Mellon Foundation, The Merrill Foundation, the Pennsylvania Environmental Council, the Rauch Foundation, The Peter Jay Sharp Foundation, Verizon, Virginia Environmental Endowment and the Wallace Genetic Foundation. Without their support this project would simply not have been possible. Finally, we would like to extend a special thank you to the board of directors of the Chesapeake Conser- vancy, and to John Maounis, Superintendent of the National Park Service Chesapeake Bay Office, for their leadership and unwavering commitment to the Captain John Smith Chesapeake Trail.
