关于我们
The Great Lakes Environmental Law Center is Michigan’s foremost environmental legal advocacy organization. When environmental issues threaten our communities, residents deserve an advocate that will work with them to create multi-faceted solutions that will achieve their goals. We focus on addressing environmental issues impacting people of color and low-income because these communities are often more severely impacted by environmental issues and often lack access to legal services.

On November 20 at 6:00pm,?the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) will hold an in-person public hearing on the proposed Groundwater Discharge Permit for the Fremont anaerobic digester, at the request of FLOW and the coalition of residents and organizations working to strengthen protections. The Fremont anaerobic digester is a huge facility that uses bacteria to decompose organic waste (such as commercial food waste and factory farm sewage) and generate biogas. The byproduct of this process is a concentrated sludge called “digestate.” The digestate – often full of heavy metals and biological hazards – is held in massive cesspits, then sprayed on fields as “fertilizer.” Neighbors are assaulted by noxious, intolerable odors, and the digestate runs off of overloaded fields and into lakes, streams, groundwater – and residential wells. It's important to make your voice heard in defense of our natural resources and drinking water. Get the details: https://lnkd.in/edbyhid9

Protecting our right to clean, safe drinking water requires perpetual diligence and examination of what dangers may emerge. Today is a good day in that stewardship.
Today is a big day for safe, clean drinking #water for millions of people across the country and in the Great Lakes region. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)'s action on #PFAS is a critical step to addressing #ForeverChemicals. Read the full statement by ELPC's Federal Legislative Director Ann Mesnikoff to learn more.
