W.R. Grace & Co. has submitted a request to the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) to make changes at its chemical facility located at 5500 Chemical Road in Curtis Bay. The company is asking for permission to modify parts of its operation that produce industrial and catalyst chemicals.

We know that Curtis Bay residents are already impacted by pollution, and we want to make sure you have a chance to ask questions and share concerns. That’s why MDE is hosting an Informational Meeting​ to explain the proposed changes and what they could mean for the community.
