5 SB1029 Maryland Agricultural Certainty Program (Middleton plus 3) This bill is controversial as the Chesapeake Bay Foundation supports it, but almost all other environmental groups are opposed. It is a ten-year program during which farmers who volunteer for the program will be exempt from further regulations. They must take certain steps to control and report their farming practices. The League opposed the bill’s ten-year exemption period. Favorable report, EHEA; passed second reader.
