Michigan .
Mercury pollution poses serious risks for human health as well to the health of
Lake Michigan
. Eating predator fish from Lake Michigan, which contain mercury, is
discouraged for people, and is unavoidable for bald eagles, loons and other wildlife
that depend on lake fish .
Modern, inexpensive pollution controls can capture 90% of the mercury from a power
plant . In fact, several states are requiring power plant owners to use this technology
. I
encourage you to adopt similar rules here in Illinois .
