In November 1996, the Governor by executive letter created the Governor's Flood Mitigation Task Force for Western Maryland. Composed of federal, State and local officials and business people from Western Maryland, the Task Force studied episodes of flooding that occurred in Allegany, Frederick, Garrett and Washington counties in 1996.
Though its final report was submitted to the Governor in January 1997, the Task Force continued to work on long-term solutions to prevent or minimize flood disasters in Western Maryland. Meeting annually, the Task Force also monitored progress on issues addressed in its report. The Task Force last met on November 18, 2002.
