Bay Foundation Says Law Firm Threat To Restoration

 A Baltimore law firm is asking rural counties to band together to challenge the new federally led Chesapeake Bay restoration strategy, something a foundation dedicated to the bay's health called one of the most serious attacks on clean water it has seen in Maryland.

The Chesapeake Bay Foundation said Tuesday it sent a letter to Gov. Martin O'Malley asking him to fight the effort. Dorchester County has hired the Funk & Bolton law firm to go to rural parts of the state asking counties to collectively challenge the federal plan, the foundation said.

"They are preying on the fears that counties have over how to pay for clean-up efforts," the letter to the governor said.
