EPA OIG: Agency Needs to Better Report Chesapeake Bay Challenges

08-P-0199 EPA Needs to Better Report Chesapeake Bay Challenges, [Report PDF – 40 pages] [At a Glance PDF]

  • “Despite many noteworthy accomplishments by the Chesapeake Bay partners, the Bay remains degraded. This has resulted in continuing threats to aquatic life and human health, and citizens being deprived of the Bay’s full economic and recreational benefits. Through its reporting responsibilities, EPA could better advise Congress and the Chesapeake Bay community that (a) the Bay program is significantly short of its goals and (b) partners need to make major changes if goals are to be met. Current efforts will not enable partners to meet their goal of restoring the Bay by 2010.”
