SUSQUEHANNA RIVER BASIN COMMISSION

ORIGIN & FUNCTIONS

For water resources development, conservation, and management of the Basin, the Commission formulates plans, policies, and projects. From its source at Otsego Lake near Cooperstown, New York, the Susquehanna River flows 444 miles to Havre de Grace, Maryland, where the river meets the Chesapeake Bay. Half of the Bay's freshwater flow comes from the Susquehanna River.

The Commission consists of four members. These include the governor or designee from each signatory state and one member appointed by the President of the United States (Code Environment Article, sec. 5-301).
