Maryland fines developer over new Gunpowder tributary pollution

Original: Maryland fines developer for more Gunpowder tributary pollution

Maryland has issued a fine to a developer over additional pollution in a tributary of the Gunpowder River, according to the Baltimore Sun. The penalty adds to ongoing regulatory concerns about construction-related sediment and runoff damaging waterways in the Baltimore-area watershed, an issue local environmental advocates have repeatedly pressed state officials to address.

Why now: New enforcement action against a repeat polluter of a valued Baltimore-area waterway draws regional attention.
