The Ohio Lake Erie Commission (OLEC), which administers Ohio’s Lake Erie Protection Fund, has awarded the University of Toledo with a $15,000 grant to examine the benefits of using a more environmentally sound stormwater system on the main campus. The hope is that a number of ideas emerge from the project that can be put to use on the campus and at other institutions.
The Lake Erie Protection Fund was set up to help finance research and implementation projects aimed at protecting, preserving and restoring Lake Erie and its watershed. The fund is supported by Ohioans who purchase a Lake Erie license plate displaying the Marblehead Lighthouse or the Toledo Harbor Lighthouse.
