Save Font Hill Wetland Park!

Howard County will destroy habitat for Eagles, River Otters, Beavers, Owls and hundreds of other inhabitants of this ecosystem! Howard County will be performing a stream “restoration” to obtain MS4 credits. Stream “restorations” are destructive practices that are not supported by science yet are promoted by stormwater bureaucrats, engineers, developers and the politicians they support. The County describes this project as a "final phase" of the stabilization work, but it is actually just repairs of failed structures that were constructed during previous stream restorations in 2007 and 2019. Most stream restorations eventually fail and end up sending more sediment and pollution to the Bay. Hundreds of trees will be killed by the heavy equipment required to do this unnecessary work. The money wasted on this project could be used to plant trees or build thousands of rain gardens which are the real solutions.

I will be using the money to distribute fliers, make signs, and print mailings if there are funds. Thanks for your support!
