yesterday for the south shore
Of Piscataway Bay off the Po-
tomac River in Prince Georges
County.
Civic and historical groups
who successfully fought the
first proposed site at Mockley
Point on the bay say their ar
guments still hold against any
site further inland.

day of the new site. The COM
mission said the site would not
adversely affect or otherwise
detract from the Mount Vernon

It was the Mockley Point site
visible from Mount Vernon
about two miles across the Po-
tomac that raised a storm OF
protest last winter. The opposi-

acres along the Potomac and
