Homeowner Practices To Promote Water Quality The cooperative extension Services in Delaware, maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Landscapes That Help the Chesapeake Bay (MD coop. ext. Fact Sheet http://www.mawaterquality.org/Publications/html_pubs/homeowner_practices.htm
Extractions: There are four major watersheds in the Mid-Atlantic: the Ohio River basin draining to the Gulf of Mexico, the Delaware Bay, the Roanoke and Chowan River basins draining to the Ablemarle-Pamlico Sound, and the Chesapeake Bay. All of these watersheds have stream segments identified as impaired by nutrients. The nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus cause eutrophication, which results in excessive algal growth and low oxygen conditions in rivers and estuaries, often resulting in local fish kills. Nutrients can also threaten drinking water supplies, especially in rural areas with poorly protected drinking water sources. Chemical pollution is also a problem in many of the rivers within the Mid-Atlantic region. Chemicals can come from a variety of sources, and can harm plants, animals, fish and humans in different ways. Certain kinds of chemicals can affect the reproduction, development and survival of fish and other living resources. Some chemicals can accumulate in fish and other animal tissues, and in bottom sediments in rivers and estuaries. Developed areas and household activities can contribute both nutrients and chemical contaminants to local waterways, and ultimately to major estuaries, like the Chesapeake Bay. Nutrients and chemicals from septic systems, lawn fertilizers, household cleaners and pest treatments, and automobile exhaust can contribute to water pollution. Stormwater running off from paved surfaces like roads, driveways and parking lots funnel many of these pollutants directly to waterways.
