What's New COMMENTARY: Conceptualizing a Great Lakes commons The Ashland Current (1/20) Slowly over the past 50 years or so the perception of the Great Lakes has changed—at least among most thoughtful people—from limitless, exploitable resource to finite, fragile ecosystem. Unfortunately, problems persist, threats proliferate, most of the safeguards are reactive, and, with climate change and environmentally careless legislatures, the lakes may be threatened as never before. Dayton bonding plan includes water pipe for Lutsen Duluth News Tribune (1/18) Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton released a $903 million state-funded construction plan Tuesday that includes money for a water-pumping system for Lutsen ski resort and its neighbors, and another chunk for a transit hub in downtown Duluth. Michigan DNR asks for feedback on sturgeon rehabilitation strategy Petoskey News-Review (1/11) Sturgeon and outdoors enthusiasts rejoice: the Michigan Department of Natural Resources would like your feedback on their sturgeon rehabilitation strategy. The plan's strategies include strictly regulating fishing opportunities for sturgeon, addressing sea lamprey control, habitat rehabilitation, stocking and education. Gas drilling could take air out of offshore wind North Country Public Radio (1/11) Politics and price are pitting gas drilling against offshore wind on the Great lakes. State politics is tipping the balance toward hydrofracking, and away from what could be the first major offshore wind development in the Great Lakes. NY landowners weigh in on gas-drilling regs Wall Street Journal (1/11) Landowners hoping to sign leases with natural gas drillers say New York's proposed regulations put some land off-limits to drilling for no logical reason, under the guise of protecting water supplies. Michigan plans cut in Lake Huron salmon stocking Wall Street Journal (12/2) Michigan officials said Friday they will reduce stocking of Chinook salmon in Lake Huron by more than 50 percent next year, acknowledging the lake no longer can support large numbers of the popular sport fish because of food web changes linked to invasive foreign mussels.
