The Maryland Health Resources Planning Commission calls for reducing 5,100 beds statewide to curb costs, risking closures or mergers for as many as 14 hospitals including Frederick Memorial Hospital which faces a cut of 56 beds. The report notes 2,500 unused beds in Baltimore and outlines several county alternatives while FMH undertakes a 25 bed expansion.

Clagett Spends Beyond His Expense Allocation
Frederick County Commissioner Galen R. Clagett billed $4,010 more than his five year expense allotment. In fiscal 1985 he charged $4,283 with mileage on a county car and MACC related travel. Other commissioners urge clear policies and individual accountability for expense accounts. Clagett argues the expenses cover county duties and travel to promote economic development.

Eastalco Faces Stricter Waste Rules for Aluminium Plant
Federal standards tightening discharge limits affect Eastalco Aluminum in Buckeystown. The plant has twice violated federal bacterial limits due to fecal coliform runoff into the Potomac, traced to peanut oil use. Officials described corrective disinfection, while a state report outlines Potomac basin water quality and 20 year planning. Local towns like Myersville and Frederick face ultraviolet disinfection upgrades to meet compliance by 1986 and 1987 respectively.
