Are cleanup volunteers welcome or not?
Gov. Jennifer Granholm and wildlife officials are saying no thanks to volunteers attempting to rescue oil-covered wildlife from the Kalamazoo River and surrounding waters.

"While the sentiment is appreciated, the unauthorized efforts have potential to harm human health, environment & affected wildlife," Granholm wrote on Facebook on Thursday. "Incorrect disposal of wastewater created when cleaning oil-covered wildlife contaminates ... groundwater, surface water & drinking water."
