The Scenic and Wild Rivers Review Board was
created in 1968 (Chapter 85, Acts of 1968). The
Board reviews all inventories, studies, plans, rules,
and regulations prepared in accordance with the
Scenic and Wild Rivers law. In the review, full
consideration is given to the recommendations of
the Secretary of Natural Resources, local gov-
erning bodies, and local advisory boards. The
Board also recommends to the General Assembly
resource management plans for the rivers, shore-
lines, and related lands included in the scenic and
wild rivers program, and recommends additional
rivers and tributaries for the program.

With the advice and consent of the appropriate
local governing body, the Review Board appoints
a local scenic and wild river advisory board for
each river in the Scenic and Wild River Program.

The Board consists of the Secretaries of Agri-
culture, the Environment, Natural Resources, and
State Planning, and a Garrett County Commis-
sioner who votes only on matters pertaining to the
wild portion of the Youghiogheny River (Code
Natural Resources Article, sees. 8-401 through
