    2007 ANNUAL REPORT

  • What legacy are we creating for our childrenwhen it comes to protecting our vital resourceof clean water in Northern Michigan? I wasthinking of this recently when a friend mentioned that, asa gift to his children, he had taken out a membership in hislake association in the name of each child. He did thisbecause he felt it was his responsibility to bring in the nextgeneration as financial stewards of their lake, and whatbetter place to start than with his own children. While thereare many important ways you can teach your children aboutbeing good stewards of our natural resources, making afinancial commitment, in their name, to an organizationcommitted to protecting these resources is a vital andimportant first step.

    I thought about my own family and the fact that though my wife, Teresa, and I havebeen long time financial supporters of The Tip of Mitt Watershed Council, ourchildren are not. Of course we’ve talked extensively with them about the importanceof protecting the lake we live on and our water resources in Northern Michigan, butnow we’ve taken an important next step and made a membership contribution ineach of their names to theWatershed Council. Further, annual membership renewalat the Watershed Council is over 90%, meaning there’s a very likely chance they willbecome life long supporters of the Watershed Council.

    When you look through our annual report keep in mind it is membership that drivesthis organization. It is membership that allows the Watershed Council to bring onstaff some of the finest experts in water resource protection in the country. Our staffprovides guidance, expertise and counsel on everything from policy affecting ourGreat Lakes to the science behind local watershed management planning, monitoringactivities, and data collection. With all this work, the staff brings passion, warmth,and dedication and empowers us to make a positive difference.

    Won’t you now consider taking out a membership to honor a family member or evena friend. It’s easy. Simply call or e-mail us. The gift that you make in someone’s namecould potentially open the door to life long support of Tip of Mitt WatershedCouncil. And what better legacy is that!

    Sincerely,David Crouse

    great accomplishments illustrating our commitment toprotecting the water resources of Northern Michigan.

    Water Protection Team

    � In conjunction with the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, theVolunteer Purple Corps performed a detailed inventory of purple loosestrifewithin the watershed. Data collected will be utilized in the Aquatic InvasiveSpecies Patrol database and will aid the Watershed Council in prioritizinglocations for management and developing a purple loosestrifemanagement plan.

    � Four shoreline and streambank restoration projects, totaling 490 linearfeet, were designed and installed to curb erosion, protect water quality,and enhance habitat.

    � Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council coordinated volunteers from Elk Rapids toCross Village to collect algae samples, primarily Cladophora, for analysisby the Great Lakes Environmental Laboratory in Ann Arbor.

    � A grant from the Charlevoix County Community Foundation provided fundingfor the design and installation of two rain gardens demonstrating stormwaterBest Management Practices (BMPs) in the Lake Charlevoix Watershed.The rain gardens are located at the Charlevoix Public Library and the EastJordan marina.

    � The Watershed Council received funding from the Frey Foundation to supportstormwater management work as part of the Treasure Lake Charlevoix (TLC)project. The Watershed Council will work with the City of Charlevoix Departmentof Public Works to develop a plan to reduce inputs and nonpoint sourcepollution via stormwater runoff.

    � Watershed Council staff and interns paddled the 56 miles of Lake Charlevoixshoreline to identify inputs of nutrient pollution, lakeshore erosion, andgreenbelts. Results from the Lake Charlevoix Shoreline Survey will beavailable in 2008.

  • 2007 HIGHLIGHTS

    "We in Government have begun to recognize the critical

    work which must be done at all levels—local, State and

    Federal—in ending the pollution of our waters."

    Robert F. Kennedy

    (1925-1968)

    Policy and Advocacy

    � Through our participation in Clean Water Week in Washington DC andrepresenting Michigan during national conference calls with Congressionalstaff, Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council was considered the lead organizationin Michigan for advancing the Clean Water Restoration Act to reaffirm theoriginal intent of the Clean Water Act.

    � The Watershed Council works on many fronts when it comes to invasivespecies. As a result of our efforts, we achieved authorization of the Asian CarpBarrier and other Great Lakes programs in the Water Resource DevelopmentAct, were successful in getting many species of Asian carp listed under theLacey Act, and have experienced progress towards ballast water legislation.

    � We participated in the Michigan Shoreline Policy Workgroup convened by theDepartment of Environmental Quality strengthening protections for coastalwetlands with the development of a new General Permit for certain shorelinemanagement activities.

    � Little Traverse Bay Watershed Protection Plan was approved by the MichiganDepartment of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) and the EnvironmentalProtection Agency (EPA). This resulted in the Tip of the WatershedCouncil and their partners being eligible for funding under Section 319 ofthe federal Clean Water Act.

    � The Watershed Council reviewed and filed comments on dozens ofdevelopment permit applications. This included the continued work toensure that the cleanup efforts of leachate at Bay Harbor are appropriateand thorough and that the options for disposal comply with current regulatorystandards to prevent any adverse impacts to surface and groundwater.
