Civil and Environmental Engineering Department?s faculty member, Dr. Allen Davis, has been appointed to the BayStat Program Scientific Advisory Panel. Dr. Davis was nominated by members of the BayStat Subcabinet, based on his experience and reputation in the field.
The BayStat Program was established by Governor Martin O?Malley and codified into law this past legislative session (Senate Bill 213) to measure and evaluate the State?s efforts to restore the Chesapeake and Coastal Bays, and to administer the up to $50 M annually established in the Chesapeake and Atlantic Coastal Bays 2010 Trust Fund. As called for in that legislation, a Scientific Advisory Panel is appointed by the Governor to review and advise the BayStat Subcabinet annually on the most effective use of the 2010 Trust Fund. The Panel consists of scientific and other technical experts with demonstrated expertise in the disciplines related to the protection and restoration of the Chesapeake and Coastal Bays.
