Help the Chesapeake Bay Program chart our course to 2025

I was the first Federal employee when the CBPO was created. Richard Batiuk becamde my intern the next year (and retired as Associate Director a few years ago) The goals were to reduce (especially Nitrogen) contaminants and rebuild living resources. Those should continue to be the goals, but in our face population, development near the water, impervious surfcaes and (sorry) public and Givernmental apathy continue to grow. In many ways for decades, we sort of stopped the Bay from going down hill, but human behavior, greed, self interest, and commercial econimic growth demands "for a better economy" fight us at every turn. Spending more often does not help the problem, just makes us feel better. Decades ago I thought a plan would be to bus people one way out to Montana , Idaho or wherever. OIf course nobody wants to go and more want to come here to Captain John Smiths "wonderful bay".
