We are pleased that Dr.

year’s program entitled,
“Upcoming Issues Confronting Inland
Lakes.”
Dr.
Steinman received his PhD in
Botany/Aquatic Ecology from Oregon
State University and is Director of
Grand Valley State University’s
Annis Water Resources Institute.
He has previously been the
Director of the Lake Okeechobee
Restoration Program in southern
Florida and is a current member of
U.S. EPA’s Science Advisory Board
for the Upper Great Lakes.
He has testified before
Congress and the Michigan and
Florida state legislatures and has
been invited to speak throughout the
world.
Dr. Steinman is frequently
interviewed on National Public Radio
(NPR), commenting on such issues as
the ecological implications to the
Great Lakes from a potential Asian
Carp invasion.
Dr. Steinman’s research interests
include nutrient cycling in aquatic
ecosystems, sustainability of water
resources, restoration ecology and
algal ecology.
