University of Maryland Joins Anacostia Restoration Efforts

The University of Maryland has formally agreed to partner with the Anacostia Watershed Restoration Committee in the efforts to restore the Anacostia watershed. The Partnership Agreement, signed in March, will include possible collaboration in stream monitoring, stormwater management projects, stream restoration projects, applied research in these areas, and watershed-based public outreach activities.

We applaud this environmentally sensitive action by the University. EOPB contributed to this process early-on in several ways, and looks forward to working with all parts of the University community to help in this effort. Our first project will be to construct an environmental kiosk along the Paint Branch hiker/biker trail on the campus. We will need lots of volunteers. Contact: Bob Ferraro at 301-890-1998.
