Mission Statement

The Great Lakes have long been an important part of

life for every state that touches the shores of these

magnificent bodies of water. The Great Lakes have

supplied us with a source of fresh drinking water, fed

our inland tributaries, and allowed freighters and ferries

to carry cargo, freight, passengers, and goods. In addition,

the Great Lakes make for marvelous swimming, diving,

boating, and many other recreational activities.

But now the Great Lakes are threatened by actions

of our own doing. In 1962, the St. Clair Channel was

deepened to allow large freighters passage. A combination

of lack of rain and erosion along the bottom has accelerated

water loss to a point far beyond what was ever imagined

when this project was undertaken. We find lake levels have

dropped 30 inches.

The purpose of this website is to get the word out. People

are seeing water levels dropping but don't know what to

do. Our goal is to first provide information of where

this water loss is coming from - the 1962 Army Corps of

Engineer dredging project - and then allow viewers the

opportunity to call upon members of congress to

look into this problem.

We want our legislative leaders to take a serious look

at this problem and start looking for real answers.

We need to start NOW. If we wait too long, we may not

have much left to save.
