The Bay is getting $90 million to heal

The Chesapeake Bay — America's largest estuary and the livelihood of more than 1,800 surrounding communities — just got a major rescue plan. More than $90 million was announced October 2: $37 million from the EPA plus another $53 million from other agencies, funding 83 new projects to restore habitat and deliver long-term clean water across the whole watershed. It's a proven formula — targeted grants with a track record of real, measurable environmental results.
