NATURAL RESOURCES INSTITUTE The Natural Resources Institute replaces the former Department of Research and Education (Chapter 776, Acts of 1961). It is responsible for increasing knowledge of the resources of Maryland and their best uses, with special emphasis on the tidewater and inland resources. The research program is maintained in cooperation with the depart- ments represented in the Department of Natural Resources. The Insti- tute also participates in the education of the public and of individuals in the problems and potentials of natural resources and in the train- ing of students and specialists in related fields. The principal divisions of the Institute include the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory, Solomons; the Department of Forestry, Fish and Wildlife and Department of Environmental Education, College Park; the Seafood Processing Laboratory, Crisfield; and a field sta- tion in Western Maryland for problems relating to the Appalachian region. A wide series of publications is issued, including the quarterly journal, CHESAPEAKE SCIENCE, devoted to research and progress on natural resources of the Chesapeake Bay Region (Code 1957, 1970 Repl. Vol., Art. 66C, sees. 18-21).
