Poplar Island project eyed to reclaim dredged bay material
A House subcommittee approved a $15 million plan to restore Maryland's Poplar Island in the Chesapeake Bay using dredged sand and silt. The project would cost over $300 million over 25 years, with federal support possibly covering three-fourths. The aim is to recreate the 1800s landscape while creating wetlands for wildlife and holding 38 million cubic yards of dredged material.
