Development needs to be done responsibly. Can the land support the development? Critical areas must be maintained and not rezoned for development. Creeks in this area have been rated D+ in health. What can residents do to better this grade? We all need education. We love our crabs and waterfowl. Economically they support the county. We want them forever. Let’s each of us contribute to the future of our ecosystem by saving them.
Development is done responsibly since we follow both State and federal guidelines when it comes to land clearing, storm water and sewer/water. We also follow wetland and critical area issues during the permit process. The poor rating of a specific creek is not being caused by a the development process.

River Run Manager is well respected and the development is well managed. River Run is a well planned community with package plant for waste water treatment, a real example of how development can be done well!
Yes we have an onsite sewer system that was built by us then turned over to Worcester County. We also have spray irrigation.
