State matching money needed or St. Louis River National Estuary project dies
91.3 KUWS, Duluth, MN (2/26)
The St. Louis River would be the 28th National Estuarine Research Reserve in the country and the 2nd on the Great Lakes. The reserve would bring in $550,000 in federal grants each year. To get those dollars the state needs to offer a 30% match, or about $236,000 annually.

What does the Snell Lock connect?
from Keisha in Fort Wayne, Indiana
The Bertrand H. Snell Lock, located northeast of Massena, New York, is part of the St. Lawrence Seaway and lifts (or lowers) ships 45 feet into the Wiley-Dondero Canal. The St. Lawrence Seaway was constructed in the 1950's to provide a continuous, navigable, and deep waterway, through a series of locks and dams, from the Atlantic ocean to the Great Lakes.
