The Council’s Ecosystem and Ocean Planning Advisory Panel (AP) will meet on Wednesday, September 9, 2015 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the DoubleTree by Hilton Baltimore – BWI Airport (890 Elkridge Landing Road, Linthicum, Maryland, 21090; telephone: 410-859-8400.)

The purpose of the meeting is to provide input to the Council on the development of written Council policy on non-fishing activities that impact fish habitat. The development of written policy on these activities will allow the Council to comment more quickly on proposed activities and projects, and enable the Council to work more effectively in addressing fish habitat and ecosystem issues in our region.
