Publications and News Releases
This summary of results shows substantial support for working on all of the issue areas. Please be sure to read the suggestions and comments on each of the issue areas. This includes substantial valuable ideas. As we look at GLEN’s future, our program planning team has identified five potential priorities for GLEN programs and related activities. We sought input from our GLEN members and colleagues on where GLEN should focus its efforts. The purpose of this survey was to gather an assessment from citizens involved in Great Lakes Areas of Concern (AOCs) of progress towards the general goal of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement (Agreement) “to restore and maintain the chemical, physical and biological integrity of the waters of the Great Lakes,” and towards the specific objectives of removing 14 “Beneficial Use Impairments” (BUIs).
Every three years, the Canadian and Federal governments put together their priorities for science and action for each Annex in the GLWQA for the next three years. This is a very important document because it is the basis against which they will report three years from now. The attachment is our submission to the governments recommending changes to their proposed priorities, which will cover the period 2023 - 2025. The governments' draft proposals are at https://binational.net/2022/09/15/psa-pasa-2022/. Having those open in front of you may make it easier to understand our comments.
