Study: 1.5 Million Jobs Linked to
Great Lakes; $62 Billion in Wages

A new study says more than one-and-a-half million US jobs and $62 billion in annual wages are linked directly to the Great Lakes.

The study released today says Michigan has nearly 523,000 jobs connected to the Great Lakes, more than any other state. Pennsylvania has more than 25,000 and New York has more than 157,000.

Most of the jobs are in manufacturing. Others are in tourism and recreation, shipping, agriculture and other sectors of the economy.
