"TRAVERSE CITY - Area environmentalists want local governments to help stop pollution discharges into Grand Traverse Bay by changing the bay's designation to an Outstanding State Water Resource."
Good move. Instead of just having Great Lakes "areas of concern" that we try to clean up, why not have "areas of quality" that we try to keep from deteriorating? Grand Traverse Bay is just one of many potential candidates. All of Lake Superior is another. But many high-quality bays around the Lakes should be protected in this way.
