State of Maryland has preserved 221 acres<br />
in Dorchester County along the Harriet Tubman<br />
Underground Railroad National Historical<br />
Park and Scenic Byway. Governor<br />
Martin O’Malley and the Board of Public<br />
Works approved funding to preserve the<br />
land through a Coastal Resilience Easement.<br />
“Because of our State’s vulnerability to<br />
sea level rise ─ especially in our coastal<br />
communities ─ we must now consider the<br />
possible impacts of flooding and storm surge<br />
when we look to conserve our open space,”<br />
said Governor O’Malley. “This first-of-itskind<br />
easement will not only protect a significant<br />
natural and historic area from<br />
development, it also includes requirements<br />
that address the threat of climate change.”<br />
A new element under Program Open<br />
Space, Coastal Resilience Easements are designed<br />
to protect areas that may be prone to<br />
high waters and storm surge by permanently<br />
eliminating development, restricting impervious<br />
surfaces, protecting areas that allow<br />
wetlands to migrate, and requiring periodic<br />
Soil Conservation and Water Quality plan<br />
