The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality has released a document titled Michigan’s Strategic Framework for the 2010 Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. This document spells out how they would like to spend Michigan’s portion of the $475 million approved by Congress for the clean up and restoration of the Great Lakes.

The priorities include several million dollars devoted to responding to the threat of invasive species in the Great Lakes, doled out among several different projects; plans to seek federal grants for ameliorating contaminated sediments; and development of more effective fish consumption warnings.
