With a dizzying array of private and public landowners as well as numerous governmental entities all responsible for the water that eventually drains into Lake Monroe from its plus-400 square mile watershed, someone needs to tie all those parties together to work to keep the lake clean. Maggie Sullivan, an environmental engineer, is the watershed coordinator for the Friends of Lake Monroe. She works to keep farmers, wastewater treatment plants, septic tank homeowners, businesses, the US Forest Service, and many more whose land use activities directly affect the lake, all on the same page. Our conversation with Sullivan is part of the Deep Dive cooperative effort between WFHB News and Limestone Post magazine looking into the quality of the lake’s water now and and in the future. The LP article will run in August with a series of on-air follow-up reports on WFHB.
Hosts Michael Glab and Alex Ashkin chat with Bloomington’s most fascinating people.
