LAKE ERIE ALGAE
In this Sept. 15, 2017, file photo, algae floats in the water at the Maumee Bay State Park marina in Lake Erie in Oregon, Ohio. Ohio for the first time is declaring western Lake Erie impaired by the toxic algae that has fouled drinking water and closed beaches in recent years. The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency's announcement Thursday, March 22, 2018, comes amid a federal lawsuit over whether part of the shallowest of the Great Lakes should be declared impaired.
