Chesapeake Bay Watershed Task Force Will be Critical for Bay Restoration Efforts

Annapolis, Md. – Yesterday, Congresswoman Sarah Elfreth (MD-03) and Congressmen Bobby Scott (VA-03), Rob Wittman (VA-01) and Andy Harris (MD-01) relaunched the Congressional Chesapeake Bay Watershed Task Force. This task force is a bipartisan effort that works to protect the Chesapeake Bay Watershed through outreach and education, on-the-ground action and joint policy discussions.

"The Chesapeake Bay Watershed Task Force is a solid bipartisan effort that we know will proudly serve the people and wildlife of the Chesapeake Bay watershed," said Chesapeake Conservancy Interim President and CEO and Chief Operating Officer EJ Amyot. "We’re eager to collaborate with the task force on tackling issues and identifying solutions that may hinder our work to create a healthy and accessible Chesapeake Bay."
