A suite of three bills to tighten up the intents of the FCA is now before the 2019 legislative session of the Maryland General Assembly. They are: “No Net Loss of Forest” (House Bill 120/Senate Bill 203); “State and Local Forest Conservation Funds” (H.B. 272/S.B. 234); and the “Forest Conservation Task Force” (H.B. 735/S.B. 729).  Read more by following the link to the Baltimore Sun oped by Dick Williams and Bernadette Roche, co-Leads for Maryland Episcopal Environmental Partners, as to why this legislation is vital for wildlife and humans alike.
