Rising water levels in the Great Lakes during the past year not only have delighted property owners, who prefer views of waves over weeds, but the swelling bodies also are feeding commerce and a variety of plants and animals that call the lakes home.

Talk about framing! "Waves over weeds." How about "waves over natural emergent wetland vegetation critical to the Great Lakes"?
But at least rising water levels will reduce the clout of the Lansing lobby that's been trying to undo the coastal wetland protection law in Michigan to allow "grooming," alias dooming -- everything up to and including tractors running over critical habitat.
