Comments on Genesee County, Michigan Water Proposal: Review under Great Lakes Charter

Description: 

A letter outlining Great Lakes United's opposition to Genesee County's proposal to build a pipeline to withdraw 15.5 billion gallons of water a year from Lake Huron. The proposal is opposed because:1) The proposal would increase water withdrawal and consumptive use from Lake Huron; 2) The proposal would increase water withdrawal and consumptive use from Lake Huron; 3) The proposal would dramatically increase water withdrawal and consumption by the Genesee County system and its users; and 4) The proposal does not provide a water conservation and efficiency plan.
