219 [S4E13]: Protecting Local Waters: Maggie Sullivan of the Friends of Lake Monroe
Lake Week at The 812 continues with Maggie Sullivan, the Watershed Coordinator for the Friends of Lake Monroe. It's a non-profit organization whose goal is to bring together the many entities that have some responsibility for the reservoir: the Army Corps of Engineers, the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Monroe County, and the City of Bloomington Utilities among others -- because none of them are directly related or responsible to each other, and no one is specifically responsible for the quality of the water in the lake. We talk with her about what causes the water to sometimes taste funky; the problems of sediment, agricultural nutrient runoff, and the thousands of septic tanks in the area; and how she works with everyone to collectively protect the watershed.
