Abstract

NOAA proposes to designate approximately 52 square miles of waters encompassing and surrounding Maryland’s Mallows Bay as the Mallows Bay – Potomac River National Marine Sanctuary (MPNMS or sanctuary). NOAA also proposes regulations to implement the sanctuary designation and establish the sanctuary’s terms of designation to protect historical, archeological, and cultural resources of national significance. A draft environmental impact statement (DEIS) and draft management plan have also been prepared for this proposed action.
