Upcoming Meetings

Clean Water, Healthy Families

Friends of Lower Beaverdam Creek, a Cheverly Green Infrastructure Plan partner, has joined the Clean Water, Healthy Families campaign.

The campaign's goals in the Maryland General Assembly are:
  • Finish upgrading the wastewater treatment plants that Maryland has already committed to (SB 240/HB 446);
  • Ensure that local governments have resources to reduce polluted storm water runoff and implement their local clean water plans (SB 614/HB 987);
  • Reduce pollution from poorly planned development – including limiting new septic systems (SB 236/HB 445)
