Question
### What was the goal of the EPA Chesapeake Bay Study? If necessary, reread the following information adapted from the Chesapeake Bay Foundation's History. --- In 1967, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation (CBF) formed to be the voice of the Bay. In 1976, the CBF had raised public concern over the future of the Bay high enough that Congress approved a seven-year Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Chesapeake Bay Study. In 1983, EPA issued its report on the Bay Study, documenting systemic declines around the Chesapeake. The report focused not on a single cause for the decline but on the accumulation of insults that the Bay was suffering as the result of human pressures on it. Later that year, the Governors of Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania and the Mayor of the District of Columbia met at a major conference. Their task was to hammer out what would become the first interstate Chesapeake Bay Agreement and expansion educational outposts. During the first part of the 1980's, modest improvements were made. Underwater grasses returned and striped bass (rockfish) rebounded strongly. At the same time, however, oyster stocks in both Maryland and Virginia declined to historic lows, causing great hardship in the seafood industry and dangerously increased fishing pressure on blue crabs. In 1996, the CBF developed a goal to monitor nine indicator benchmarks for Bay restoration over the next 10-20 years. They include wetlands, underwater grasses, forested stream buffers, migratory fish, oysters, toxics, dissolved oxygen, water clarity, and loss of resource lands. Soon afterwards, the indicators were increased to 13 categories, including blue crab populations, to monitor the Chesapeake Bay's health. --- ● decrease consumption of natural resources ● minimize the impact of human pressures on the Chesapeake Bay ● increase the sustainability of the human population in Maryland ● monitor the health of the Chesapeake Bay
