WORKING WITH OUR GOVERNMENT PARTNERS TO KEEP LAKE MONROE SPARKLING. Last week, we welcomed Susan Raisor, Senior Environmental Manager with the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM), along with a crew of her colleagues, to our facility for our annual pump-out inspection—and we passed with flying colors!
As a quick reminder, LMSA received a substantial grant from the state and federal governments several years ago when we installed our updated equipment. This funding was made possible through the Clean Vessel Act Pumpout Program (CVA/CTAP) and the Sport Fish Restoration Program. The grant requires an annual inspection to ensure we keep everything running properly and protect our waters.
In addition to the boat pump, those grant funds also provided our upgraded dump station for portapotties. To keep our facility top-notch, the club purchased new holding tanks and resurfaced the dock this year. It all looks fantastic!
A huge shout-out to club member Eric Thompson! Eric helps maintain the pump and handles the opening and closing of the system each spring and fall. Thank you for your hard work, Eric!
Here’s to keeping our club beautiful and our waters clean!
