A Blue Water Project to Restore the Chesapeake Bay
Thanks to the Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), CBF (Chesapeake Bay Foundation) has been selected to receive an RBC Blue Water Project™ Leadership Grant. This two-year grant from RBC will support CBF’s vital efforts in both Maryland and Virginia to restore two of the Bay’s natural filters—oysters and forested stream buffers. RBC’s decade-long Blue Water Project™ is part of its global commitment to help protect fresh water. In 2011, grants were awarded to 30 of 1,800 organizations that applied, making CBF one of only six U.S.- based non-profits selected. Since 2007, RBC has committed more than $32 million in grants to 454 organizations across the world. Local RBC offices in Annapolis, Baltimore, Hunt Valley, Lancaster, Richmond, and Virginia Beach have developed relationships with CBF and it is through these relationships that CBF was able to apply for a Blue Water Project™ Leadership Grant. RBC’s support will enable CBF to plant millions of juvenile oysters and place hundreds of oyster reef balls into local rivers. In addition, CBF will be able to restore thousands of feet of local stream banks by planting native trees, another natural filter that reduces pollution and sediment runoff to the Bay. CBF’s Vice President for Environmental Protection and Restoration Kim Coble speaks to the importance of RBC’s support, “The giant plume of sediment (see page 28) that clouded the Bay for weeks this fall after heavy rains is testament to the need for buffers along the Bay to prevent pollution and sediment runoff. It also spotlights the plight of the oyster, which, when healthy, can filter nearly 50 gallons of water a day. The RBC Blue Water Project™ Leadership Grant will support valuable work that will have a direct positive impact on the health of the Bay, and for that, we are grateful.” “CBF is a well-established organization with a successful track record in watershed protection. We are proud to support CBF’s restoration efforts, which are critical to the future of the Chesapeake Bay,” says Sherry Koster, Manager of the RBC Foundation—USA.

I wonder why a Canadian Bank would have interests in both Maryland and Virginia? Capitalizing on a future oyster market? |

I'm aware we have regs not being enforced, a situation which clearly falls into the breadth of my statement that "it's a matter of strictly controlling and regulating them." We need additional regulations and we need to strictly enforce those we have. We also need to push for more criminal prosecutions of corporate officers for "excesses" that are now treated as civil matters. -- http://flickr.com/gp/hakr/oR82kN |

Perhaps the best solution would be to have a government regulator sitting next to every corporate executive. Hell, then we could just get rid of the corporate executives and let the government regulators do the job. Shoot, it worked in the USSR, didn't it? |

And just where do we find the thousands upon thousands of competent, incorruptible new government employees that will do the controling and regulating? And how much will that cost, and at what impact to the national debt and economy? We can't even find competent employees with good judgement to work in the TSA. |

The publicly held companies are self-regulated. They have stockholders (owners) to report to. If you want to live in a place where the government owns and regulates everything you can move to Venezuela. -HB |
