The Chesapeake Bay is where the fresh waters of the Potomac, Rappahannock, York and James Rivers (along with other tributaries, creeks, and streams) meet the ocean to create the largest estuary in the U.S. These brackish waters are home to unique plant and animal communities, and the Bay was once the most productive estuary in the country. However, chronic water quality issues in the Bay have negatively impacted these aquatic resources, fueling the creation of a multi-state effort to preserve the Chesapeake Bay. With a watershed that extends into six different states and the District of Columbia, the historic, cultural, and economic importance of the Bay cannot be understated – and Virginia has a large role to play in its recovery.
Join us for a free webinar on Tuesday, June 10th, from 6:30pm-8pm, to learn about the activities the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) engages in to protect and restore the Chesapeake Bay. During the presentation, DEQ staff will discuss the Commonwealth’s participation in the Chesapeake Bay Program, how the agency implements monitoring activities, and the activities DEQ regulates under the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Act. Each of these efforts relies on the support and engagement of all stakeholders in Virginia – this means you! Use the link below to register for this virtual presentation and learn more about how we can protect the Bay together.
