U of M Lead Survey

[zamboni]

Got this lead survey last week in the mail- anyone else get one? If so, is this survey more than likely going to mean the end of lead shot in southern MN?

It's to gauge your opinions. I believe that is Dr. David Fulton's study? The study doesn't make decisions about future regulations but it judges how the public thinks about lead.

Transitioning out of lead is just a matter of time as has been discussed here on FM. Someone in MN DNR told me that it will happen in the next 15 years and it will just be how quickly the state chooses to act. IMO, the survey just tells them how ready the public is for the change. Does MN want to be one of the first to go nontoxic and set an example or be last and dragged into it?

Yep Dr Fulton, and Sue Schroeders project manager.
