Dear FRIENDS,
Following a "Dust Forum" this past May, the Great Salt Lake Commissioner's Office has released a list of priorities for the research and management of dust pollution emitted by dry portions of Great Salt Lake's bed. The priorities include increased monitoring infrastructure, research into crust dynamics and health impacts, developing a process to differentiate dust from other sources, and identifying cost-effective mitigation strategies while working to secure enough water to get the lake to the healthy, target range of 4,198'-4,202' above sea level. We support and applaud this important step for the health of Great Salt Lake and our communities.
