Northern Michigan Environmental Action Council records, 1980-2005

3 linear feet

The Northern Michigan Environmental Action Council is a Traverse City-based environmental watchdog group. Members are primarily from a region comprised of five counties in Northwestern Michigan including Grand Traverse, Leelanau, Benzie, Kalkaska, and Antrim counties, although some members who feel a special affinity for the region are from downstate or out of state. The papers document the councilâ??s attention to local environmental concerns and their interactions with various government agencies, corporate entities, and individuals in the name of sound environmental stewardship.

The records of the council are divided into four series, reflecting general areas of interest to the organization: Land Use, Toxic Cleanup Efforts, Transportation, and Board Minutes. In turn, the subseries within these series reflect advocacy efforts or controversies that fall under the general category.
