A panel of top Bay scientists found that the current cleanup plans for the Bay will ultimately fail and calls for a new path forward. Host Don Rush talks with Karl Blankenship, editor-at-large for the Bay Journal, about why current efforts on not working and what the panel envisions for the future. Meanwhile, new fishing restrictions come as concerns arise over the Striped Bass population. Host Don Rush talks with Tim Wheeler, associate editor and senior writer for the Bay Journal about what is being done.
