		<description><![CDATA[A Cecil Times Special Report The US Army Corps of Engineers and state officials hosted a tented open house at the Corps dumpsite in Earleville Saturday to answer residents’ questions and show plans for cleaning up the dump that a federal study concluded had polluted local drinking water wells. But some residents questioned the plans and a recent letter that suggested homeowners might have to pay as much as $3,000 a year to get safe drinking water to replace wellwater contaminated by the Corps. “Is this a scare tactic by ACE [the Corps] or someone else or persons so the folks will reject the community water system,” Bill Haines, president of the Bay View Estates homeowners’ association, wrote in a recent email to state and county officials. The Corps and the Maryland Port Administration (MPA), who want to re-open the dumpsite to additional deposits of shipping channel dredge spoils, should “stop playing games,” Haines added. Meanwhile, a new chart presented on Saturday suggesting potential costs of a new water system to local residents, raises questions about the methodology used by a quasi-private, state-established agency— an agency that could have a potential conflict of interest. Also in question is why the [&#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.
