GreatLakesMud.org website cleans up

July 20th, 2015 by
Great Lakes Information Network awarded the July Site of the Month to GreatLakesMud.org. IISG created the site to disseminate information and provide resources to promote sediment cleanup and habitat restoration in Areas of Concern. The website was made possible by the Great Lakes Legacy Act, a program that, as of 2015, has cleaned up 2.9 million cubic yards of contaminated sediment through 17 remediation projects.
