WE WORKED WITH PARTNERS AROUND THE REGION TO PRESSURE THE STATES AND PROVINCES TO IMPROVE WAUKESHA'S APPLICATION THROUGH AMENDMENTS AND CONDITIONS. THE GREAT LAKES GOVERNORS AND CANADIAN PREMIERS AGREED WITH US THAT, AS SUBMITTED, THE WAUKESHA DIVERSION APPLICATION FAILED TO MEET THE STANDARDS IN THE COMPACT. THUS, THE GOVERNORS AND PREMIERS ADDED CONDITIONS TO THE PROPOSAL THAT MADE THE ALLIANCE COMFORTABLE THAT THE DECISION TO APPROVE THE DIVERSION UPHELD THE LEGAL AND POLICY INTEGRITY OF THE COMPACT AND SET A PROTECTIVE PRECEDENT FOR FUTURE DIVERSION REQUESTS. - WE EDUCATED DECISION MAKERS ON THE PROBLEM OF MICROPLASTICS IN THE GREAT LAKES THROUGH INVITED TESTIMONY TO CONGRESS THAT ULTIMATELY LED TO A FEDERAL BAN ON PLASTIC MICROBEADS IN CONSUMER PRODUCTS. - THE ALLIANCE PLAYED A KEY ROLE IN DRIVING CONSENSUS AMONG A DIVERSE SET OF STAKEHOLDERS ON A SET OF RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SHORT- AND LONG-TERM MEASURES TO ADDRESS AQUATIC INVASIVE SPECIES TRANSFER, SUCH AS ASIAN CARP, BETWEEN THE GREAT LAKES AND MISSISSIPPI RIVER BASINS, EXPRESSED IN TWO LETTERS FROM THE CHICAGO AREA WATERWAYS ADVISORY COMMITTEE TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS.

ONCE TRAINED AND ENGAGED BY THE ALLIANCE THESE TEACHERS USE THE CURRICULUM YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT, AS WELL AS TRAINING OTHERS WITHIN THEIR SCHOOLS AND DISTRICTS.

RECOGNIZING THAT REGIONAL SAND MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS MUST BE DATA-DRIVEN, ONE OF THE MAIN OUTCOMES OF THE FIRST PHASE OF THIS WORKING GROUP WAS THE NEED TO GATHER, SHARE AND ANALYZE ADDITIONAL DATA IN ORDER TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE PROCESSES DRIVING COASTAL CHANGE IN ILLINOIS. THE ALLIANCE DRAFTED A FINAL REPORT THAT OUTLINED THE SAND MANAGEMENT WORKING GROUP'S FACILITATION PROCESS, OUTCOMES, AND RECOMMENDED NEXT STEPS. - WE HELD A SERIES OF WORKSHOPS FOR MICHIGAN CITY ELECTED OFFICIALS, STAFF, AND RESIDENTS DESIGNED TO BUILD SUPPORT FOR WIDESPREAD IMPLEMENTATION OF GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE POLICIES, PROJECTS AND PROGRAMS.
