LANSING -- Neither the water-bottlers nor the environmentalists are happy with proposed Great Lakes water rules regulating the shipment of bottled water outside the Great Lakes basin.
At a public hearing on Great Lakes Charter Annex rules proposed by the Council of Great Lakes Governors, chief opposition Tuesday was to a provision allowing the shipping of water for consumption outside the basin.
That water could not be transported out of the basin in containers larger than 5.7 gallons. Individual states could enact tighter rules.
