EPA Region 3 States Develop Best Watershed-Based Plans in the Nation

With EPA's regional nonpoint source program's assistance, the Region 3 states developed watershed plans that rated very high compared to those of other regions. 

EPA Region 3 encompasses Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, West Virginia, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. Federal guidelines under the Clean Water Act assure that states and local communities establish effective watershed-based planning and develop watershed-based plans that effectively meet federal clean water quality standards. The Corsica River Watershed Plan (MD) was reviewed agency-wide as being among the best watershed-based plans in the nation. http://www.epa.gov/region03/ebytes/ebytes06_23_06.html
