PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Bynum Run Watershed (15,000 acres) begins in Forest Hill near the intersection of Jarrettsville Road and MD Route 24 and drains into the Bush River near Rt. 543 and Rt. 40. Assessments of the watershed were completed (Upper Bynum 2017) and (Middle-Lower Bynum 2019) and prioritized recommendations for restoration projects, including stream restorations and stormwater management retrofits that provide the most cost effective improvements to water quality. Water quality restoration projects are required under the County's municipal NPDES or MS4 permit and through the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Implementation Plan as required under the Bay TMDL.
