Grants Issues for Great Lakes Restoration

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has announced
more than $2 million in federal grants to three Southeast Michigan
organizations as part of
President Obama's Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, a $475 million
program that represents the largest investment in the Great Lakes in two
decades. A total of 99 grants for an estimated $63 million are
expected to be awarded in Michigan. Funded projects will advance the
goals and objectives of the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative Action
Plan which EPA Administrator Jackson announced in cooperation with 15
other participating agencies and the Great Lakes governors in February.
