Central Atlantic Environment Center
Variant namesHistory notes:
The Central Atlantic Environment Center was established in 1967 as the Potomac Basin Center. Its basic functions were to analyze and collect information on natural resource issues and to disseminate this information to citizens and civic, business, and political leaders. In January 1971 the group changed its name to the Central Atlantic Environment Center and broadened its geographic scope to include Maryland, Virginia, Delaware and the District of Columbia because it was recognized that the issues with which the Center dealt concerned entire states. The Center published a monthly newsletter entitled Central Atlantic Environment News . It also sponsored a conference on the protection of wetlands and furnished staff support for a citizens conference on the Chesapeake Bay. The Central Atlantic Environmental Center ceased to operate in 1974.
