GLWA CEO Sue McCormick Resigns

In the wake of several heavy rain storms in late June and early July, and the flood of criticism that followed (pun intended), the CEO of the Great Lakes Water Authority, Sue McCormick, submitted her resignation on Tuesday. Ms. McCormick was appointed to lead the GLWA in October, 2015.


Comment:  During her nearly six year tenure, Sue was instrumental in standing up the GLWA as a brand new authority and restoring integrity and transparency to a system that was marred by scandal and corruption. Running one of the country's largest water and wastewater systems is a tough job on a good day. Sue did a good job and is to commended for her efforts.
