The Lower Western Shore Tributary Team reviews water quality issues within Anne Arundel and a portion of Calvert counties that drain into the Chesapeake Bay. Their work is focused on reducing nutrient pollution, considered to be one of the largest threats to good water quality in the state. Nutrient pollution, primarily excess nitrogen and phosphorus, come from both point and non-point sources, and the teams focus on both. The teams were appointed by Governor Parris N. Glendening in 1996 and are comprised of local citizens, farmers, business leaders and government officials. At fork in the road, turn right and follow the signs.
