arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:

black;">BALTIMORE, MD (January 7,
2013) </span></strong><span
style="color: black;">– The Maryland
Department of Natural Resources
(MDNR) reports that zebra mussels (<em>Dreissena
polymorpha</em>) have now spread
to the upper Chesapeake Bay. This
freshwater mollusk, native to
eastern Europe, has rapidly
proliferated throughout North
America after first being spotted in
the Great Lakes in the late 1980s.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;
line-height: normal; margin-top: px;
margin-bottom: px;"><span
style="font-family:
arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color:
black; font-size: medium;">Mature
zebra mussels grow to two inches in
length and usually have a striped
pattern, thus their name. Females
can produce up to 1,000,000 eggs per
year. These eggs are carried by
currents and can easily infest other
bodies of water. The mature mussels
attach themselves to boats, and those
boats can spread the mussels to other
bodies of fresh water. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;
line-height: normal; margin-top: px;
margin-bottom: px;"><span
style="font-family:
arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:
medium;"><strong><span style="color:
black;">Why are they a concern?</span></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;
line-height: normal; margin-top: px;
margin-bottom: px;"><span
style="font-family:
arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color:
black; font-size: medium;">Just as
with any plant or animal invasive
species, zebra mussels can have a
devastating impact on native wildlife.
They colonize in large clusters,
including on slow-moving aquatic
creatures like crayfish, clams and
turtles. In some cases the host animal
does not survive. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;
line-height: normal; margin-top: px;
margin-bottom: px;"><span
style="font-family:
arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color:
black; font-size: medium;">Zebra
mussels are filter feeders, rapidly
removing algae from water. While this
improves water clarity, it can be
harmful to fish and other aquatic life
that depend on algae as a principal
food source. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;
line-height: normal; margin-top: px;
margin-bottom: px;"><span
style="font-family:
arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color:
black; font-size: medium;">These
mollusks also colonize water intake
pipes. If they enter Baltimore’s
Liberty, Loch Raven and Prettyboy
Reservoirs, they can restrict the
water flow to our municipal treatment
plants. Physical and chemical removal
of them can be done; however it is
costly and time-consuming. Zebra
mussels can also create navigational
hazards and damage piers, docks and
bridges. </span></p>

line-height: normal; margin-top: px;
margin-bottom: px;"><span
style="font-family:
arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color:
black; font-size: medium;">The
Department of Public Works has
long-anticipated the possibility of
this infestation’s approach, and we
have taken steps to address many of
the consequences that may result from
it. Unfortunately, at this time, there
are no available means to eliminate
zebra mussels once they arrive in a
body of water. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;

arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size:

style="color: black;">Prevention</span></em></strong><span
style="color: black;"> is crucial to
keeping our reservoirs free of zebra
mussels. Please act responsibly to
stop the introduction of zebra
mussels into Liberty, Loch Raven,
and Prettyboy Reservoirs.</span></span></p>

our reservoirs, please do not use
your watercraft in any other waters
except the three City reservoirs.
Due to the potential for zebra
mussel contamination, boaters on
Liberty, Loch Raven and/or Prettyboy
Reservoirs must sign an affidavit
stating that their boat will be used
<em>only on these reservoirs</em>.
Permits are also required.</span></li>
