Appendix D, a map folio of the Chesapeake Bay Existing Conditions Report, has been structured to provide the reader with a visual information supplement to Appendices B and C. Composed of plates which are too large to appear in the appendices themselves, Appendix D presents a visible recognition of project locations and problem areas associated with data presented in the other appendices. The plates refer to such data as land use, ground water, water supply, recreation, power, beach erosion, navigation, noxious weeds, and fish and wildlife. It is also intended that through comparison of these plates some of the conflicts in water resource development around the Bay area will be delineated.

The Chesapeake Bay Existing Conditions Report is a milestone report of the Corps of Engineers' comprehensive investigation of Chesapeake Bay's water resources. It presents the findings of the first, or inventory, phase of the study, and its purpose is to provide water resource planners, scientists, and other interested readers with an assessment of the present status of the Bay, its resources, and its problems. The Existing Conditions Report, divided into a summary and four supporting appendices, presents an overview of the people residing in the Bay Region and the economy; a survey of the land surrounding the Bay and its use; and a description of the Bay itself, the forms of life it supports, and the physical forces that control its hydrodynamics.
