The Maryland Department of the Environment is inviting you to help maintain and improve the quality of the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries! Volunteers will assist MDE in monitoring the amount of nonpoint source pollution entering Maryland waterways and the Chesapeake Bay watershed. Non-point source pollution is one of Maryland's largest environmental problems concerning waterways; it kills plants, decreases the amount of oxygen in the water, and makes the water all around less
habitable to any life form.
MDE wants you to help the Bay and its watershed by volunteering to reduce runoff pollution. This opportunity offers volunteers the chance to change how your government works for you, gives you insight into how a state enforcement agency operates, and allows volunteers to meaningfully help the Bay and its watershed.
