Hogan Vows To Fight PMT

OCEAN CITY — Republican Gov.-elect Larry Hogan told farmers at the Maryland Farm Bureau Convention in Ocean City that he would fight proposed Phosphorus Management Tool regulations once he takes office.

The PMT’s activiation was set in motion by Gov. Martin O’Malley in November, a week following a released analysis that estimated it could cost Eastern Shore farmers about $22.5 million after state and federal subsidies.

“The first fight (when I take office) will be against these politically motivated, midnight-hour Phosphorus Management Tool regulations that the outgoing administration is trying to force upon you in these closing days,” Hogan told more than 700 members of the agricultural community Monday, Dec. 8. “We won’t allow them to put you out of business, destroy your way of life or decimate your entire industry.”

  2. 11:33 - while I sympathize with the watermen....implementation of the PMT will NOT prevent what you are alluding to. There's a lot more going in the bay that these clowns are not even thinking of.....

  3. 12:01 you are fool - go ahead republicans rolled back environmental protections and see what we are left with. 11:33 is right - there will be no fish or crabs left. This is not about money, its about doing right by this earth. We are destroying this land and any one who argues is a fool!

  4. 11:33 And it won't have a thing to do with what they're proposing with the PMT BS. Take your fight to where it matters... errrr, nevermind, you wouldn't fight for anything, just mouth off showing your lack of knowledge.

  5. The watermen would take the last fish and oyster out of the bay, and then bitch because the taxpayers didn't replace them.

  7. 12:23 you are a closed-minded idiot thinking that the PMT will cure everything. Implementing the PMT plan will not stop the reduction in crab and oyster populations - it will take a lot more on the western shore and northern inlets to the bay. We need to reduce the amount of crabs and oysters we take out of the bay. Yes, we are destroying the land - but we are implementing the wrong solutions to fix it...

  9. Interesting how he vows to fight PMT, but he claims he can't fight to repeal the illegal gun control tactics of the Libtard. Yes Larry we are paying attention.

  12. For the past several years every property owner in maryland pays $30 a year to clean up the chesapeake bay. This should be the cleanest body of water in the country.
