| Who Owns the Potomac and Why?
with Michael Nardolilli Tuesday, March 31 at 2:00 p.m. |

| Have you ever looked at maps and wondered why the boundary line between Virginia and Maryland on the Potomac River is so odd? It is not in the middle of the river, like it is in most places, and it doesn’t really follow the curves of one shoreline or the other. Michael Nardolilli, the Executive Director of the Interstate Commission on the Potomac River Basin will explain the weird history behind the state boundaries along the Potomac River. Mike will also be able to answer your questions about the recent massive sewage spill along the Potomac, who is responsible for cleaning it up, and what it means for our health and recreation. |
