Why should residents, businesses, tourists, watermen and the like be concerned about the condition of our waters, and support organizations such as TRPA?
A Our waters, the rivers, streams, creeks and the Chesapeake Bay into which they run, are arguably the major attraction for all of these interests; the golden goose that lays the egg. Waterfront property is valued at five to six times the same property without the water. Polluted water in impaired rivers that will not support the lives of fish, oysters and crabs can have a very negative effect on those values as well as the enjoyment found in using the waters. Water quality has tremendous economic importance.
