MARIE, Mich. – Multiple Michigan inland lakes along with Great Lakes waters and tributaries recently received an infusion of more than 730,000 walleye fingerlings raised under a program administered and funded by Indian tribes. The program was assisted by the state Department of Natural Resources (DNR). “We are very appreciative of this ongoing offer from the tribes to help assist the state in enhancing not only the important Great Lakes walleye fisheries in northern Michigan, but also our inland lakes that tra- ditionally have been a magnet for walleye anglers, like Brevort and North Manistique lakes,” said Jim Dexter, acting chief for the DNR’s Fisheries Division. The fingerlings were raised by the Inter-Tribal Fisheries and Assessment Program (ITFAP) based in Sault Ste. Marie. The program is administered by the Sault Ste.

At that time, it supervised four locals representing 1,000 members. William McAulay served as its first director until 1959, when the International Executive Board dissolved Region 1B, reallocating most of its local into Region 1. In 1966, the International Executive Board divided Regions 1 and 1A into 1, 1A, 1B, and 1E. Ken Morris, elected co-director of Region 1 in 1955 and director in 1959, became director of the newly- formed Region 1B in 1966 and served until his retirement in 1983, when he was succeeded by Bob Lent. When Morris retired, Region 1B supervised 34 locals with 80,000 active members and 27,000 retirees. In addition to the major automotive manufacturers, Region 1B locals represent or have represented workers at Huck Manufacturing, TRW, Briggs Manufacturing, Eaton Manufacturing, and Bohn Aluminum. The records of UAW Region 1B consist of minutes, correspondence, reports, grievance files, contract negotiating and organizing files, conference proceedings, and clippings and other printed material related to the servicing of its locals and its political activities in the region.

This document was originally published to help celebrate Michigan’s 150th birthday in 1987. A number of organizations and individuals contributed to its development at that time. The document has continued to be used by many since that time, so a decision was made to bring it up to date and keep the information current.

  • DIT Executive Orders
    AAppppeennddiixx EE DIT Executive Orders Executive Order 2001-3 created DIT in an effort to achieve a unified and more cost-effective approach for managing information technology. This was to be accomplished by strengthening and coordinating IT policy decisions across the enterprise. Under the order DIT is mandated to fulfill the use of common enterprise information technologies and provide consistent professional management of the state’s IT resources. Major departmental responsibilities under the EO include: Centralize IT policy-making Unify strategic and infrastructure planning for technology Improve information, project, and system management Act as general contractor for technology products and services Provide citizens with more timely and cost-effective delivery of state services EO 2001-3 was the culmination of the consolidation of IT services through a number of executive orders, including 1994-15, 1995-10, 1995-14, and 2000-6. These orders consolidated telecommunications and information processing, founded the Michigan Information Network, and established e-Michigan. Governor Granholm has supported and strengthened the implementation of this executive order through the creation of advisory bodies such as MITEC (discussed later in this chapter) and assigning a key role for DIT within the Cabinet Planning Process. Follows is the complete detail of these executive orders. They can also be found on the Michigan.gov web site at the following addresses: Executive Order No. 2001-3, effective on October 14, 2001 – http://www.michigan.gov/engler/1,1431,7-103-704-3054--M_2001_8,00.html creating a Michigan Department of information Technology.

  • A Statewide Trailways Vision and Action Plan National Park Service: Rivers, Trails, and Conservation B
    Welcome to CONNECTING MICHIGAN, an especially proactive and broad-based initiative to identify and address the critical issues that are impeding Michigan’s progress on developing a statewide interconnected system of trailways and greenways. These treasured resources, so appealing to a wide array of interests, benefit Michigan communities and provide exceptional opportunities for various recreational pursuits, health and fitness, nonmotorized transportation, environmental enhancement, economic and educational benefits, and tourism. Today’s vision can be tomorrow’s reality. l The bi-partisan Michigan Land Use Leadership Council, a public-private council formed in early 2003 by Governor Jennifer Granholm, recommended that “the state should provide incentives … to develop and maintain trailways and to avoid the interruption of trailways vital to recreation and tourism interests,” and that it should “encourage a statewide linked system of trails and recreation.” l A study, conducted by Dr. David Chenowith in 2003 for the Michigan Fitness Foundation, found that physical inactivity among Michigan’s 7.6 million adults cost nearly $8.9 billion in avoidable health care costs in 2002. 2 Championing Sustainable Change The Michigan Trails & Greenways Alliance (MTGA) is INSIDE . an active and vital partnership that promotes the History of Trailways in Michigan . 2 on-going development of our state’s trailways.
