Over the many years, I've been working for clean water for Grand Lake St. Marys, I have hundreds of times, "The State of Ohio will not clean-up GLSM until someone sues or someone dies from the toxins."
The Guardians of Grand Lake St. Marys has been working hard to educate the public about the toxicity of the lake and the dangers to human health. We have met with much resistance but we are not waiting until someone dies.
We are building and have been building a legal case in hopes we can force our public officials to seriously make an effort to clean-up our lake. For the past three years, we have been gathering much needed data using outside sources to eventually take legal action.
Between now and March 1, 2019, we need our supporters to send photos and videos of farmers to violating the "frozen ground" legislation to 20goglsm13@gmail.com. Also, file a complaint to the Soil & Water Conservation District at https://www.mercercountyohio.org/county-services/soil-and-water-conservation/technical-assistance/pollution-complaints/. It would be helpful to also send complaints to the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency by calling 1-800-282-9378.
If you really want to see Grand Lake St. Marys safe again, please help us now.
