About
At their annual meeting in Natchez, MS mayors along the nations most important inland waterway announced a multi-pronged approach to improving the water quality of the Mississippi River. Mayors of MRCTI consider clean water a top priority because more than 20 million people and 50 cities drink the surface water of the Mississippi River. Also, the top three economies on the Mississippi are manufacturing, tourism, and agriculture generating $366 billion in annual revenue directly supporting over 1.1 million jobs. These three economies depend on one vital resource clean fresh water. Said Mayor Dave Kleis, mayor of St. Cloud, MN and MRCTI executive committee member representing MN.
