Summary

CMU offered public two-hour cruises aboard the research vessel MV Chippewa on July 15 and August 5, 2017. The advertised program invited participants to observe long-term Lake Michigan monitoring, underwater video, and remotely operated-vehicle work from the CMU boathouse at Whiskey Point.

Evidence limits

The forum notice establishes the public program and its scientific purpose, but does not preserve attendance, sampling results, or proof that either cruise sailed.
