Maryland Legislature approves agency reorganization plan
The Maryland House approved a package reorganizing four natural resources agencies. An amendment to remove future Tidewater Fisheries Commission directors from the merit system was adopted, while the present director remains in place. The plan creates the Department of Chesapeake Bay Affairs, and shifts functions to a Department of Water Resources and a reorganized Maryland Geological Survey, with the Board of Natural Resources serving as coordinating body. West Hartford Republicans set a presidential primary for April 15 with 544 hours of polling.
