3 million to by back licenses or to pay them not to crab? BIG DIFFERENCE. How many commercial crabbers does Virginia have and how much did they pay for the permits?

And I love this line...

$4.2 million to pay watermen to patrol the Chesapeake Bay with side-scanning sonars to retrieve abandoned crab pots and debris, and for university staff to oversee the program.

Sounds to me the university staff will likely see a substantial portion of this money....

I suspect Maryland will probably waste their 10mil on even more junk..
