Mattawoman Watershed Society

Conservation Easement Passes!

Environmentally sensitive forest and streams essential to one of Mattawoman's finest tributaries is now conserved.

Watershed Conservation District may be threatened

While the WCD means:

       less sprawl,
                less traffic growth,
                     strong schools,
                            stable tax rates,

higher home values,

purer air,
cleaner rivers & streams,

assured water supply,

cherished rural character,

healthier Mattawoman Creek!

Some new elected officials in Charles County ran opposing the WCD. This could mean 17,000 new units wanted by the pro-growth real-estate lobby, with all the problems attending such sprawl development.
