New projects should be sited, designed, constructed and maintained to
prevent or, if prevention is infeasible, to minimize the discharge of
pollutants into the Bay by: (a) controlling pollutant sources at the
project site; (b) using construction materials that contain
nonpolluting materials; and (c) applying appropriate, accepted and
effective best management practices, especially where water dispersion
is poor and near shellfish beds and other significant biotic resources.

Support the efforts of federal, state, and local agencies in developing non point source pollution control programs.

Water pollution should be prevented protect Bay resources and beneficial uses

To protect the Bay and its tributaries from the water quality impacts of nonpoint source pollution,.. with the protection of Bay resources. To offset impacts...

Ensure that the project will not cause harm ... to Bay resources,

Water quality in all parts of the Bay should be maintained at a level that will support and promote the beneficial uses of the Bay...protected from all harmful or potentially harmful pollutants.
