This year marks the 50th anniversary of a transformationalturning point for Bay water quality: passage of the FederalWater Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972, commonlyknown as the Clean Water Act (CWA). On the occasion of this momentous milestone, this edition of The Pulse of the Bay includes nineperspectives written by representatives of the groupsthat have a prominent role in managing Bay water quality, and profiles of the parameters that have been the main water qualityconcerns over the past 50 years, with a focus on long-termtrends and a historical perspective.The CWA provided a legal framework and a considerable amount of federalfunding (over $1 billion, equivalent to approximately $7billion in 2022 dollars) that drove a rapid and remarkableimprovement in Bay water quality.
