When speaking of the great lakes (or any other body of water) its best to understand that they generally mean the entire watershed. I live on the interior of Michigan and I'm supposed to get approval from the Army Corps of Engineers to put in a permenant dock at the little lake I live on.

They don't want their control to end at the shorelines, they intend their control to go all the way to the groundwater under the land. For a water state like Michigan, it would mean getting rid of pretty much every last one of us. Personally I'm not so sure many of our economic problems aren't deliberate and rooted in the idea of evacuating us.

Actually various DNRs are attempting to redefine “navigable waterways” to any body of water no matter how small, pond, rain puddle, rain run off creek, or other depressions containing water either on permanent or temporary basis...

the ultimate authority on my lake, Seneca Lake-NY, is the U.S. Coast Guard, because it flows into to the Erie Canal that flows into the Hudson River that flows into Atlantic Ocean

Sad. I’m not leaving...yet. Jenny’s fault. Why do they want all of our water?

Better get property and water rights (for what they are worth) while we still can.
