Here are the three studies I mentioned at the last CAC meeting that discuss Climate Change for Michigan.

Selected Pull Quotes:

US-EPA:

"The EPA study says standards also should represent predictions of future conditions, including more intense rain events forecasted for the Great Lakes region in coming decades.

Based on that draft, Knueve figures sewer systems would have to be designed with 10-40 percent extra capacity to account for future climate change."

UCS:

"Climate change is projected to increase the frequency of extreme precipitation events."

UM Pellston Labs:

"while intense storms are likely to be more frequent"

Thanks.
