The new county or intercounty drain: section outlines specific criteria that make an • Flooding or imminent risk of flooding obstruction eligible for removal. Upon passage • Increased erosion of Section 196a, the MACDC organized a • Channel instability committee to outline the process for undertaking • Reduction in capacity that may cause obstruction removal in non-county drains and to flooding make recommendations for best management • Other damage practices (BMPs) applicable to these projects. This committee included representatives from Figure 1 MDARD, MDEQ, MDNR, Trout Unlimited, drain offices, and various engineering, legal, and environmental consultants. The recommendations of this committee were presented this fall at each of the district meetings. OBSTRUCTIONS ELIGIBLE FOR REMOVAL The first aspect of the new law covered in these presentations was the list of specific requirements for obstruction removal. The law allows for the following types of obstructions to be removed on non-county drains: • Ice • Fallen trees • Logjams • Other debris Additionally, since there is no existing right-of-way, permission must be obtained from landowners on whose property the obstruction is 6 | VOL 24, NO. 4 | WINTER 2015 Figure 2 The committee stressed that the obstruction committee was careful to note this form only removal under Section 196a, though occurring certifies that an obstruction meets the criteria on a non-county drain, must be for the benefit outlined in the law.

BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES Since the obstruction removal under Section 196a is on non- county drains, it is possible or even likely, that the watercourse’s main function is not drainage. Other uses could include anything from habitat and environmental enhancements to recreational activities. Therefore, it is important that these other uses be considered when defining a project. Woody material in drains is often an impediment to flow. | MACDC.NET | 7 OBSTRUCTION REMOVAL CONTINUED Removing too much woody debris from a waterway can eliminate habitats for fish and other macroinvertebrates. Generally, woody material in drains is thought of generally better to leave it in place. However, as an impediment to flow.

  • Sen. Levin Secure Against Any Republican in 2014
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 19, 2012 INTERVIEWS: Tom Jensen 919-744-6312 IF YOU HAVE BASIC METHODOLOGICAL QUESTIONS, PLEASE E-MAIL [email protected], OR CONSULT THE FINAL PARAGRAPH OF THE PRESS RELEASE Sen. Levin secure against any Republican in 2014 Raleigh, N.C. – PPP's latest Michigan poll finds Democratic Senator Carl Levin sitting pretty with a net +11 point approval rating 46/35. While that number is very solid; Junior Senator Debbie Stabenow has even higher approval: 55/36. Relatively prominent Republicans in the State had poor name recognition among voters. U.S. Reps Justin Amash and Mike Rogers were seen as more unfavorable than favorable, 11/17 and 17/18 respectively. In both cases, over 65% of respondents had no opinion either way, which suggests familiarity is the issue, not necessarily favorability. Rep Candice Miller was the only Republican polled to receive a net positive favorability 34/23. Only 15% of voters knew State Sen. Roger Kahn well enough to have an opinion about him. State Attorney General Bill Schuette has a slight disapproval of 18/22, with 60% not sure. In hypothetical head-to-heads for the 2014 Senate seat, Carl Levin dominated against any potential Republican opponent. Poor name recognition is a clear factor: Candice Miller had the highest name recognition of all the Republicans polled; and she fared the best against Levin, 52/34. Amash performed second-best, 53/32. Kahn and Schuette each trail Levin by 22 points, 53/31 and 54/32 respectively. Rogers performed the worst-55/31. Michigan voters approve of the job President Obama is doing 53/44.

    2018 Michigan State Senate Race September 2017 This is a preliminary report on the 2018 Michigan State Senate races. It includes filed and prospective candidates from each of the 38 Senate districts along with district maps and current Senators. The information in this document is taken from multiple sources. Updates will be made as Senate races progress. If you have any questions or comments please contact us at Public Affairs Associates. 1 1st District Current Senator: Coleman A. Young, Jr. (D-Detroit), (term-limited) Filed: Rep. Stephanie Chang (D-Detroit) Nicholas Rivera (D), Admissions Counselor at Wayne State University Prospective: Rep. Bettie Cook Scott (D-Detroit) Former Rep. Alberta Tinsley-Talabi (D-Detroit) Former Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Detroit). Rep. Tlaib’s run is a possibility, but with Chang in the race it’s questionable. Rico Razo, Mayor Mike Duggan’s re-election campaign manager Denis Boismier, Gibraltar City Council President. Although Boismier is running for Gibraltar mayor this year, he may possibly join the race if the field becomes heavily saturated with Detroit candidates. 2 2nd District Current Senator: Bert Johnson (D-Highland Park), (term-limited) Filed: Tommy Campbell (D-Grosse Pointe) Rep.
