An assessment of the Fall-line (non-tidal) load of trace metals in the Potomac River. The trace metals to determine its contribution of metals to the Chesapeake Bay.

This Work Plan outlines the continuing Federal support for the Anacostia watershed restoration effort, and applying six restoration goals identified in the Anacostia Watershed Restoration Committee's Six Point Action, examines Federal programs to determine what goals are being fulfilled and which others can be achieved with Federal support.

Virginia, where 57% of the survey's respondent were familiar with the Bay, had 56% of its respondents say they believed funding should be spent to reduce water pollution.

The Who's Who is a contact book which includes the organization of the Chesapeake Bay Program into subcommittees, committees and workgroups. Memberships listed and an index is located in the back of the document which includes street address, phone number, fax number and email.

This is a PowerPoint presentation and a Word Document on a presentation by Richard Batiuk, EPA, to the public on July 8, 2002, in the PA Department of Environmental Protection's South Central Regional Office, Harrisburg.

In 1997 and 1998 the CBP signatories opened 294.3 miles of blocked tributary habitat to migratory fish and 67 miles to resident fish (a total of 361.3 miles) within the Bay watershed. Since the program's inception, almost 80 projects have been completed, which opened 523.5 stream miles to migratory fish. This report discusses fish passage project currently in the planning, design or construction phases for 1999 and future years.

In the District of Columbia, 63% of the District's respondents thought that funding for repair should be spent on reducing water pollution. As in each individual jurisdiction's survey, the District of Columbia's data was analyzed by the distance between where the respondent lives and the Chesapeake Bay. It also analyzed attitudes towards the Bay by demographic information.

A compilation of toxic substances detected in, released, or applied to all media (water, soil, sediment, tissue and air) within the Chesapeake Bay basin.

This project was undertaken to provide the Chesapeake Bay Program with an assessment of chemical analytical capabilities currently available in the Bay region and to provide guidance on how to proceed with toxics analysis in the future.

The objective of this project was to develop a practical and conceptually sound framework for assessing benthic environmental conditions in Chesapeake Bay that would address general constraints and limitations; i.e., naturally varying habitat elements, such as salinity, sediment type, and depth, and different sampling methodologies.
