The National Wildlife Federation has a good website with info on the GL Compact, the Great Lakes Regional Center - http://www.nwf.org FYI - the next water conservation workshop for craft brewers and cheesemakers is in Rochester NY on March 26- details and agenda at conserve-greatlakes.com, workshop sponsor Alfa Laval USA, plus a craft beer and cheese tasting sponsored by Briggs of Burton Inc., cheers, Lucy hi Ginger, thanks for the post – the inspiration for the project is due to the timing for the Great Lakes Compact – it was just passed as an international agreement last year BUT the actual regulations and permit codes to implement the GLCompact in each state and province are being written now – for starters, all businesses within the Great Lakes basin have to conserve water, and overall, it’s a smart move to save money and build a sustainable business.
