Senate of Pennsylvania
Session of 2021 - 2022 Regular Session

MEMORANDUM

Posted: May 10, 2022 10:57 AM
From: Senator Scott Martin and Sen. Gene Yaw
To: All Senate members
Subject: June 5-11, 2022 as "Chesapeake Bay Awareness Week" in Pennsylvania
 
In the near future, we plan to introduce a resolution designating the week of June 5-11, 2022 as “Chesapeake Bay Awareness Week” in Pennsylvania.
 
The Chesapeake Bay is the largest and most productive bay in the United States, with a watershed spanning six States and the District of Columbia, including half of our Commonwealth. Its largest tributary, the Susquehanna River, provides 50% of the Bay’s fresh water.
 
Tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay provide an important source of drinking water, recreational fishing and boating for Pennsylvanians. By improving the water quality in Pennsylvania, the overall health of the Bay will continue to improve.
 
All residents of Pennsylvania are encouraged to commemorate Chesapeake Bay Awareness Week with events and educational programs designed to increase the awareness of the importance of the Chesapeake Bay to Pennsylvania, the region, and the United States.
 
Please join us in co-sponsoring this important resolution.
