Abstract
The major product of this grant, a handbook entitled Great Lakes Toxic Hotspots: A Citizen's Action Guide was published in November, 1985. Since then, several workshops have been held to introduce this handbook to citizen's groups in Green Bay, Gary, Hammond, East Chicago, and Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, and Chicago. Other workshops are being planned for this year including some in cooperation with the League of Women Voters. The authors have also been very involved in attending and commenting at regulatory hearings related to the clean up of the Grand Calumet River. During the last two months, attention has been focused on public hearings regarding the Corps of Engineers proposed Confined Disposal Facility at Indiana Harbor. Since David Fogarty moved to California in December, LMF Exec. Director, John Laue has devoted 1-2 days per week to the project. The authors have provided staff and technical assistance to the Grand Cal Task Force, and have helped them to set up their River Watch Program.
