Billions of gallons of fresh water is draining out the great lakes because of a man made problem- the dredging of the St. Claire river resulting in even more erosion. Because of the sediment buildup the depths decrease causing problems with shipping through this river. Consequently more dredging is done and the cycle continues. This river needs to be restored to a state that restricts or slows down the massive outflows of Lake Michigan water. To use a an adaptive solution as they called it last night appears to be the passive please special interest groups way to bring this river back to its original state or close to it.Say What? https://www.blogger.com/profile/10542136708478530935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-33274792795681452742012-07-13T11:48:10.190-05:002012-07-13T11:48:10.190-05:00There's a big boulder about 100 yards off shor...There's a big boulder about 100 yards off shore in Bay View called Texas Rock. It's normally a couple feet below the surface, but I've seen pictures from the '30s and '60s, when lake levels were at their lowest, showing people who had swum out and stood on the barely submerged rock, making it appear as though they are standing on the water.<br /><br />I'm guessing we'll see more of these photos being created in the near future.jimspicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16316014985662331998noreply@blogger.com
