"Ohio Lawmakers Pass Bill To Clean Up Lake Erie" [1]

"The Ohio General Assembly Wednesday passed a major new measure to clean up Lake Erie pollution and fight the harmful algal blooms that contaminated Toledo’s water last summer.

The measure now goes to Gov. John Kasich to be signed into law.

The bill focuses on reducing the amount of nutrients such as phosphorus which flow into the lake as rain runoff, feeding the growth of harmful algal blooms."
