Agencies wrapping up connector permitting procedure

Maryland Independent, by MEREDITH SOMERS

[...]
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Maryland Department of the Environment — the two agencies that must sign off on the four-lane highway that runs from Waldorf to Bryans Road before dirt can turn — are both near the conclusion of their respective permit review processes.

“Basically the county has repeatedly said it has no additional information and we’ve said ‘fine,’” said Bill Seib, chief of the regulatory branch of the corps’ Baltimore District. “We’re looking at the information and making a review.”
[...]
According to the Maryland Department of the Environment’s regulatory decision timeline, a decision will be made Dec. 15 or six weeks after the earliest resolution of regulatory requirements.

  • 1. · This is actually good news. Should the worst happen and both the Army Corps of Engineers and MDE sign off on this, it will be December. The election will be over and a new Board of Commissioners will be installed in January.

    Any one of a number of expected lawsuits will be filed that will easily delay the actual issuing of permits well into 2011. The new commissioners can then vote to withdraw the application for the CCC and get on with the business of prioritizing what issues and concerns really matter to the citizens of the county.

    Also, do not believe for a minute the $47 million price tag for this road. A friend at the State Highway Administration says this will cost at minimum $100 million and they cannot for the life of them figure out where the county is coming up with the numbers they are using.

    Yes - where DO they get these numbers?

    I read a couple of years ago, the estimated cost was over $60M and now it's DOWN to $47M?

    Just smoke and mirrors from this bunch in their never ending quest for complete and total build-out - and of course, to "reward" their "contributors" and we all know who those "contributors" are!! wink

  • 3. · Why can't county government just admit this road is an unconscionable waste of money and natural resources. Meanwhile, people who live next to the proposed path of this roadway live in limbo.

  • 4. · #3, that's the question many have been asking over and over and over for the past 10 years or more. It's not like there aren't any east/west corridors, but it seems with these commissioners personal agendas trump citizens's quality of life along with a viable, productive watershed.

    NOVEMBER!

  • 5. · #3 roadblock:

    at the same time, though, when i attended the talk at CSM (sorry, forget who presented it), i was surprised by how many people who live in adjacent neighborhoods were hearing of these plans for the very first time.

    i think word is getting out farther and wider nowadays, particularly because this is an election year.

  • 6. · xcitor,

    It was the SGACC (smarter growth alliance of charles county).

    The sad thing about some folk who would live right next to the road (Kingsview) is that a couple of 'em just bought their houses and were not informed by their real estate agents... Isn't there a law against that sort of thing?

    Comment by J-T-B  on  03/18/10  at  06:52 PM | [Back to Top] | [Back to Main]
  • 7. · yes, that was the talk---the SGACC.

    the problem with real estate agents informing prospective buyers about what's going is that nothing is set in stone. there is so much up in the air, it's hard to say what they're required to disclose. of course the better answer is that their attorneys will know better.

    i feel for your neighbors.
