Michigan to Lower Phosphorus Content of Detergents to Help Great Lakes Water Quality
- "[Michigan] State legislation to limit phosphorus in dishwasher and laundry detergents passed the House and Senate earlier this month and is expected to be signed into law... Experts blame phosphorus, a nutrient used in detergents and fertilizers, for accelerating the growth of algae... The legislation... would limit the phosphorus content of detergents to 0.5 percent... from the current limit of 8.7 percent." - excerpt from this mlive.com article.
