Your GPLA Board members have been busy preparing for the coming summer. Over the past year, we have seen grassland tilled into production, plans to enhance the regional energy grid and new incentives for wind farms. To minimize the environmental impact within our watershed, sound conservation practices are more important now than ever. In order to meet the challenges of our ever changing world, we have completed filings for nonprofit status. As state and federal funding sources come under pressure to reel in deficits, we remain committed to our water quality monitoring, local conservation partners and promoting education on healthy shoreline practices. Please check our summer calendar and newsletters for special announcements and events. Thank you for your interest and support.
