"Ohio Governor To Sign New Rules Aimed at Lake Erie Algae" [1]

"OREGON, Ohio — Ohio's governor is set to put in place new rules that should help cut down on the pollutants feeding the algae in Lake Erie.

Gov. John Kasich (KAY'-sik) will travel to the lake's shoreline near Toledo on Thursday for the bill signing.

The changes are being made in response to the toxic algae that contaminated the drinking water for more than 400,000 people in northwestern Ohio and southeastern Michigan eight months ago."

The Associated Press had the story April 2, 2015. [2]
