Pursuant to Natural Resources Article, § 4-1006.1, Annotated Code of Maryland, the Secretary of the Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR), announces delineations of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) protection zones. The delineations announced below are identical to previous delineations which were compiled and published on DNR's website on December 7, 2012. (http://www.dnr.state.md.us/fisheries/SAV/baydelineatedSAVl.pdf) These delineations are re-published here to provide additional notice to the public.

Using a hydraulic clam dredge, a traditional bottom dredge, or a shinnecock rake in a SAV protection zone is strictly prohibited.
