Public Meeting/Hearing Follow-Up

Thanks to all those who attended the public meeting and hearing on the Marsh/Rock CARP. 

At the meeting, Charlie Bennett (CAAC and Potomac Regional Committee chair) provided an introduction to the group.  Dave Jostenski (DEP) then provided background on why the watersheds were designated as a Critical Water Planning Area and gave an overview of the legislated process for CARP development.  Heidi Moltz and Jim Palmer (ICPRB) reviewed the draft CARP document and its key recommendations.  Charlie Bennett then discussed voluntary local implementation of the plan.

At the subsequent public hearing, a number of statements were made concerning the CARP.  The perspectives of those who provided statements at the meeting and those who have since submitted comments in writing are greatly appreciated.
