MARYLAND MANUAL 273 The Chesapeake Bay Interagency Planning Committee (CBIPC) was established at the request of the Governor in 1969 with the ex- pressed purpose of responding to the Statewide concern for the future of Maryland's greatest natural resource—the Chesapeake Bay. The Committee was created specifically to address the public concern for the immense economic, environmental, and social values inherent in the Bay coastal zone system as well as to improve the coordination between State agencies with responsibilities for Bay planning. In 1970 CBIPC enlisted the services of the planning consultant firm of Wallace, McHarg, Roberts and Todd to study the Maryland portion of the Chesapeake Bay and prepare a comprehensive inventory of the present and anticipated problems of the Bay coastal zone system. The investigation also included recommended goals, policies, and manage- ment institutions which would most effectively respond to Bay problems. After nearly two years of effort, the consultant sent forth the docu- ment entitled, "Maryland Chesapeake Bay Study," a 408 page tech- nical summary of the ten task reports comprising the investigation. In July, 1972, the Department of State Planning with the assistance of the consultant firm of Urban Research and Development Corpora- tion condensed the "Maryland Chesapeake Bay Study" into an abbre- viated summary entitled "Integrity of the Chesapeake Bay."
