		<description><![CDATA[The US Army Corps of Engineers plans to formally apply for a state environmental permit later this month to allow resumed dumping of shipping channel dredge spoils at an Earleville dumpsite, with a “conditional” permit expected to be issued by October, state and federal officials said Saturday. The permit is expected to be contingent upon the Corps and the Maryland Port Administration carrying out promises to install a membrane liner over the Pearce Creek dumpsite and pay for extending a water pipeline from the Town of Cecilton to provide clean, safe water to local residents whose individual wells have been affected by the dump. Residents of three communities affected by the dump—West View Shores, Bay View Estates, Sunset Point and some individual homes along Pond Neck Road—turned out Saturday at a community update event on the project. Under bright sunshine at the Bay View boat ramp on the Chesapeake Bay, several county and state elected officials mingled with residents and discussed the project with Corps, MPA, and Cecilton officials. The Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) would have to issue a water quality certification before dumping could resume at the site and the agency has a maximum of one year [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County Councilor Joyce Bowlsbey (R-2) went into battle-mode Tuesday over the pollution of Earleville residents’ drinking water by the US Army Corps of Engineers, asking fellow Council members if they were willing to “fight the battle”&#8211; and saying she was ready to do so. Bowlsbey asked for a special worksession of the County Council&#8211; to include County Executive Tari Moore and representatives of the Army Corps, the Maryland Port Administration (MPA), Cecilton Mayor Joseph Zang, and community representatives from the affected Earleville areas. Such a meeting, she said, would “provide reassurance to the residents that we’ve not abandoned them.” But, she told fellow Council members, “maybe [you] don’t want to fight the battle with them, but I do.” Bowlsbey said she would “continue to participate” in the Earleville community’s efforts to resolve the pollution of their drinking water by the Army Corps’ shipping channel dredge spoil dumpsite at the end of Pond Neck Road. In mid-January, an independent federal study by the US Geological Survey confirmed what local residents have suspected for decades: that the Corps’ dumpsite had polluted local aquifers and drinking water supplies in the West View Shores, BayView Estates, Sunset Point, and Pond Neck Road areas.

		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County Executive Tari Moore and the County Council mapped strategy on Tuesday for an upcoming meeting with top state officials involved in Chesapeake Bay policy, with a plan to focus on sediment buildup at the Conowingo Dam that swamps the Bay with pollutants especially after storms. But one Councilor and Moore said the talks should also focus on pollution of citizens’ wells in Earleville by a US Army Corps of Engineers dumpsite. County officials are working on setting up a meeting with the so-called “Bay Cabinet”&#8211; which includes the Secretaries of the Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE), Department of Agriculture, and the Maryland Department of Planning. At the heart of the discussion will be the costs and impact on Cecil County of federal, and especially state, mandates for pollution reductions to protect the Bay. Compliance could cost Cecil County up to $600 million by 2020. Moore said she wanted them to tour the Conowingo Dam in person before sitting down with her and the County Council to discuss pollution issues. Cecil County has joined a coalition with several other counties, mostly on the Eastern Shore, that have hired a lawyer and are threatening [&#8230;]]]></description>
