news on the Great Lakes compact

Among other interesting comments:

Industry had chafed at conservation provisions. Jon Allan of Consumers Energy, a utility in Jackson, Mich., told reporters at the recent Great Waters Institute for Journalism and Natural Resources that the agreement didn't have "a chance in hell" of passing the eight state legislatures.
