Director: Paul W. McKee

The Department of Water Resources was created by Chapter 73,
Acts of 1964, upon the recommendation of the State Planning Depart-
ment and on the basis of recommendations made in 1961 as a result
of a study of the future administration of Maryland water resource
activities. The water pollution control functions of the predecessor
agency, the Water Pollution Control Commission, originally created
by Chapter 697, Acts of 1947, were transferred in their entirety and
without substantial change to the new Department. The Department
also took over certain powers and duties previously exercised by the
Department of Geology, Mines and Water Resources (which itself was
reorganized and renamed Maryland Geological Survey). The Depart-
ment replaces the abolished Water Pollution Control Commission as a
member department of the Board of Natural Resources.
