   Evan Belaga, president of the Weems Creek Conservancy, also served on one of the project's advisory committees. He said he was pleased with the way the project turned out. While workers were rehabbing the bridge, it also enabled the SHA to expand into other projects in the area. It gave $600,000 toward a bio-retention project around Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. The SHA is helping the conservancy with some work in the headwaters of Weems Creek.
   
   "The SHA did a great job at keeping their promises to make sure the environmental impact was held to a minimum," said Mr. Belaga, who also served on an environmental committee.

   "Weems Creek is just a start, but it's a model," said Evan Belaga, president of the Weems Creek Conservancy and head of Mayor Ellen O. Moyer's environmental transition team.
   ...
   When Mr. Belaga moved into his home on Steff-en Point in 1999, he saw a creek in crisis with no rescue in sight. A move to dredge the creek with hopes that would help failed, and area residents thought Weems was lost, he said.
   
   "There was nothing going on," he said.
   
   Since then, Mr. Belaga has led the charge to seek out grant money and restore the watershed.
   
   Working with the county and the city, he has helped the creek pick up money for oyster restoration and the Weems Creek watershed study, along with a small watershed grant from the U.S. Department of Fish and Wildlife.
   ...
   Mr. Belaga said the city, county and state governments are finally working together.
   
   "With the new mayor involved, there's a whole new attitude at the city level," Mr. Belaga said.
