The Environmental Protection Agency Region 5 awarded the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy $167,358 under the Multipurpose Grants to States and Tribes federal grant program. This Formula Grant will allow EGLE to purchase new water quality monitoring equipment to enhance their ability to assess Michigan's waters through additional monitoring from October 2021 through September 2023. The equipment funded under this award will directly support EGLE's goal of protecting public health by providing clean and safe drinking water to Michigan citizens and visitors. As described in the program overview, Multipurpose Grants are intended for discretionary activities that complement established environmental statutes. This award will aid EGLE in those complementary efforts through expanded water quality assessment capabilities.
