Toxic Contaminants Workgroup Projects

A collection of geospatial layers associated with Chesapeake Bay toxic contaminant issues.

From 2023-2025, the Toxic Contaminants Workgroup held quarterly meetings to discuss per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS).

These materials describe the potential for best management practices designed to reduce nutrient and sediment loads to also reduce toxic contaminants.

Documents developed by the Toxic Contaminants Workgroup on enhanced monitoring to address the Toxic Contaminant Outcomes in the 2014 Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement.

Recommendations and tools to help localities more effectively communicate the dangers of toxic contaminants in locally caught fish.
