  • Dear Environmental Protection Agency Employees
    December 14, 2017 (Updated May 7, 2018) Dear Environmental Protection Agency Employees, This letter is written to express support and thanks for the work you do every day to protect public health and the environment. We want you to know your dedication is valued by millions of Americans despite indication that the current Administration feels otherwise. Equally important, we also write to better inform members of the public who may not understand what a frontline role you play in preventing premature death, other avoidable health consequences, irreversible ecosystem damage, and yes, even climate change. States, Tribes, and EPA play vital roles in protecting Americans and the environment from the impacts of pollution. In the late 60s and early 70s, our Congressional leaders created a system of environmental protection based on the principle of cooperative federalism. For this reason, and today more than ever, the safeguarding of our health and natural resources depends on robust state and Tribal programs as well as a fully functioning EPA. In every part of this country, you provide vital expertise and guidance, in partnership with the states and Tribes, by setting pollution limits to protect public health and the environment, facilitating development of multi-state solutions to pollution, using sound science to inform and address complex environmental challenges, responding to extreme weather events and catastrophes, and assisting states and Tribes with monitoring, enforcement and compliance. All of these functions (and there are many more) creates a level playing field among states and industry, which in turn guarantees a level of protection against harmful pollution for all Americans, regardless of where you live.

The amendments are generally aimed at environmental protection and allowing for a different type of agriculture under solar panels. DESCRIPTION/ISSUE ZTA 20-01 would revise the Solar Collection System use standards to allow larger facilities in the Agricultural Reserve (AR) zone. The total amount of collection systems on all parcels would be limited to 1,800 acres. Any collection system constructed under the proposed text amendment must be designated pollinator-friendly under the Maryland Pollinator-Friendly Designation Program or be planted with crops suitable for grazing. Facilities larger than that need to meet 200% of on-site energy needs and would require site plan approval. SUMMARY OF KEY DISCUSSION POINTS Solar panels are only allowed in the AR zone as an accessory use; the Zoning Ordinance defines that as a facility that produces no more than 120% of on-site electrical needs.
