  "projectDescription": "This project funded the University of Maryland Horn Point Laboratory and Chesapeake Bay Foundation to establish submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) beds in Chesapeake Bay by developing a citizen based program.   Volunteers grew the bay grasses and then planted and monitored the SAV beds in the Chester and Corsica Rivers. SAV provides habitat for fish and crab populations and provides a food resource for native wildlife. More than 73 square meters of grasses were planted at two sites at Green Point in the Corsica River and White Cove in the Chester River. Sixty local volunteers helped in the growing, planting and monitoring efforts.",
