Common use of Our Vision Clause in Contracts

Our Vision. The Chesapeake Bay Program partners envision a healthy, balanced and sustainable Chesapeake Bay watershed with clean water, abundant life, conserved lands and a diversity of engaged citizens and stakeholders. The Partnership recognizes that our collective success with these goals and outcomes will require a forward-looking approach that anticipates changing environmental conditions, such as long-term trends in sea level, temperature, and precipitation, as well as changing economic and political conditions. Consequently, these goals and outcomes, and their management strategies, will be updated as needed through a participatory, publicly transparent process. Even as the program partners implement the actions necessary to achieve the outcomes herein, no agency or institution can succeed on its own. Success is only possible through the cooperation and active involvement of local governments, citizen stewards and businesses throughout the watershed who actively participate in efforts at the community scale. As the Partnership commits to the goals and outcomes below, we also commit to enhanced engagement at the local level to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ a stewardship ethic across the population. Without the individual everyday actions and support of our citizens, we cannot successfully reach our goals.
