HICKORY CORNERS (AP) — Gov. Rick Snyder plans to deliver a special message to the state Legislature on energy and the environment today.
The office of the Republican governor said he'll speak at 10:30 a.m. today at Kellogg Biological Station in Hickory Corners, about 40 miles southeast of Grand Rapids.
Snyder in the past has used special messages to discuss his plans and goals in areas including health and wellness, public safety and education.
The governor's office said remote viewing locations will be offered at NextEnergy in Detroit, the Michigan Alternative Renewal Energy Center in Muskegon, and the Michigan Land Use Institute in Traverse City.
Snyder's office said his remarks also may be streamed online.
