Environmental Responsibility
Recognizing the fragile nature of the Chesapeake Bay s vast environmental treasures, Marylanders have been committed to environmental protection for several decades. This commitment to protect some of our most significant natural resources has broadened over the years to encompass all dimensions of the environment.
Following the desires of the citizens of Maryland, the State Highway Administration s (SHA) environmental activities and programs have become some of the most progressive and comprehensive in the nation. This document is intended to present the depth and breadth of SHA s efforts in various environmental focus areas.
The presentation is divided into three sections.The first two sections are
devoted to SHA 's project development activities related to natural and human
environments, and the third section concentrates on SHA 's daily operations
and partnerships. The natural environment is the world of all living organisms
and their supporting habitats.The human environment refers to people, culture
and quality of life. We hope you find this document informative, as we consider our
programs to be the state-of-the-art in environmental responsibility.
