State of the Bay Report
From 1998-2022, CBF's State of the Bay report tracked the health of the Chesapeake Bay and provided insight into the progress—or lack thereof—being made.
We are currently working on revamping our report. In the meantime, you can view some past reports below or for more recent scientific analysis, see the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science’s 2025 Bay watershed report card.
