Then Clark Turner will be able to build cheap houses in Cecil County.

According to Kathy Broadwater, deputy executive director of MPA, approximately 14,600 people work at the Port of Baltimore, and it generates another 25,410 in indirect jobs and pays $304 million in state, county and municipal taxes.

This is a State issue – should we really allow the Corps of Engineers (A Federal dept.) to jeopardize the Port of Baltimore, and the employment and revenues?

Surely the cost of a 7 mile pipeline is not an insurmountable problem to preserve the Port of Baltimore business?

The problem, for the residents of Earleville, and apparently the MPA, is urgent; it is time for the Corps of Engineers and the State of Maryland to immediately resolve this issue.
