Attorney General Frosh Leads States’ Efforts to Halt Seismic Testing off Atlantic Coast

BALTIMORE, MD – Maryland Attorney General Brian E.

The surveys will threaten the health and life of hundreds of thousands of highly sensitive marine mammals, including multiple endangered or threatened species. In addition, these tests are another step toward allowing offshore drilling - an action that could result in severe and irreparable harm to coastal and marine resources, including our vibrant coastal economy.
