You can fax your written comment for the bills.....each one separate to Delegate Riley's office and they will make the copies and have them in on time. Fax them to: 410-841-3202 attention: Valerie Sedwick
If you are going to give written comment please do so immediately so Delegate Riley's office has plenty of time to make the copies and have things prepared to be submitted on time.
These bills are a statewide initiative that will protect all state parks in Maryland. We are in the final push here...please stay involved and take time to support these bills. This will set precedent that will enable us to further protect our state parks in other situations that may arise in the future.
