Plain-English Summary
The legislation would speed up efforts to restore and protect the Chesapeake Bay by streamlining the approval process for conservation projects and increasing funding for cleanup initiatives in the watershed that spans Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Washington D.C. The bill would affect farmers, environmental organizations, state and local governments, and communities that depend on the bay's fish and wildlife by making it easier and faster to implement pollution reduction projects and habitat restoration work. These changes aim to improve water quality and revive fish populations in one of the nation's largest and most economically important estuaries.
