Gambrills residents settle with Constellation over ash and contaminated water
Timothy B. Wheeler ― Baltimore Sun

For years, Harry Jennings and his neighbors on Summerfield Road put up with bad-tasting, corrosive water that ate through plumbing and ruined appliances. They also endured a dark, gritty dust wafting in the wind that would coat their cars and clothes and even stain the outside of their homes.

“When the leaves weren’t on the trees in winter, it would blow right through the woods,” recalls Jennings, a truck driver who has lived all his 60 years in the wooded enclave off Route 3 in Gambrills.

The culprit, they suspected, was a sand and gravel pit where trucks daily dumped tons of ash produced by the Brandon Shores coal-fired power plant in Pasadena, which is owned by Constellation Energy Group.
