From The Grand Rapids News: Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Mich., has received a $375,622 state grant to strengthen cleanup efforts in the Plaster Creek watershed, long one of the region’s most polluted streams. Calvin, which sits partly in the 58-square-mile watershed, has been involved in efforts to restore the creek over the past several years. The grant, from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, will be used for community education efforts, faculty and student research, and to reduce storm water running into the creek.
