Ag runoff targets Chesapeake Bay cleanup in Frederick County
Frederick County officials heard a briefing on a statewide effort to cut nutrient pollution in the Chesapeake Bay by 40 percent by 2000. Agriculture will bear the main burden with runoff controls and voluntary programs emphasized, backed by technical assistance and potential mandatory buffers if needed. Taxpayers face a significant share of the cleanup cost as state and local partners seek options that work for all sides.
