<br />"The most re+varding thing about my work
<br />is that it gets people thinking about lakes
<br />and streams in their o+vn communities,"
<br />said Liukkonen. "Most people really care
<br />about their water resources and want to do
<br />the right thing, but often, they're not sure
<br />what that is or how to go about doing it.
<br />That's what's made my job so much fun."
