| Description | BUILDING RESILIENCE: THE ALLIANCE BELIEVES THAT WE CAN HELP OUR GREAT LAKES ADAPT TO CHANGE. SOME DAMAGE DONE CAN BE REVERSED, AND NEW ECOSYSTEM BENEFITS CAN BE CREATED. TOWARD THIS END, THE ALLIANCE CONTINUES TO PLAN AND IMPLEMENT ON-THE-GROUND PROJECTS ON BEACHES AND COASTAL AREAS WITHIN NETWORKS OF COMMUNITIES WORKING TO ADAPT THEIR SHORELINES TO A CHANGING GREAT LAKES. PROJECTS ARE UNDERWAY IN THE RAVINES OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS, MILWAUKEE COUNTY, WI, DETROIT, MI AND CLEVELAND, OH.THIS WINTER THE ALLIANCE COMPLETED ITS MULTIFACETED PROJECT TO REDUCE RUNOFF FROM THE RAVINES THAT LEAD DIRECTLY INTO LAKE MICHIGAN IN NORTHEAST ILLINOIS. THE PROJECT ENCOMPASSED TWO ON-THE-GROUND PROJECTS, AND A CAPACITY BUILDING COMPONENT THAT INCLUDED DEVELOPMENT OF TOOLS THAT EMPOWER LAND MANAGERS TO DEVELOP, IMPLEMENT AND MONITOR THE SUCCESS OF RAVINE RESTORATION PROJECTS BEYOND THE TERMS OF THE PROJECT. THE PROJECT TEAM (SIX ORGANIZATIONS STRONG ) COMPLETED ALL THE CAPACITY BUILDING OUTCOMES, INCLUDING A RAPID RAVINE ASSESSMENT FOR LAND MANAGERS, TRAININGS ON HOW TO USE THIS ASSESSMENT AND A RAVINE DESIGN BOOKLET FOR RESIDENTIAL LANDOWNERS. WE COMPLETED A DEMONSTRATION PROJECT ON RESIDENTIAL LAND IN BARTLETT RAVINE, INCLUDING INSTALLATION OF 2,500 NATIVE PLANTS, WHICH IS NOW BEING USED TO ENCOURAGE MORE LAND OWNERS TO CARE FOR THEIR RAVINES. PARTICIPANT OF PRIVATE LANDOWNERS IS VITAL AS 65% OF ILLINOIS RAVINES, BLUFFS AND BEACHES ARE IN PRIVATE OWNERSHIP. FOR THE LARGE-SCALE RESTORATION PROJECT ON JANES RAVINE A TOTAL OF 43,000 NATIVE PLANT PLUGS OF 31 HERBACEOUS SPECIES AND 1,000 NATIVE SHRUBS REPRESENTING 11 DIFFERENT SPECIES WERE PLANTED THEREBY REDUCING RUNOFF AND IMPROVING WATER QUALITY. ALL THE PROJECTS INCLUDE A CITIZEN ACTION COMPONENT AND DIRECT WORK WITH MUNICIPALITIES, PARTNERS AND DECISION-MAKERS TO PROVIDE BEST PRACTICES AND TRAININGS AND TO STIMULATE EVEN MORE SUPPORT FOR GREAT LAKES RESILIENCE. AT THE SAME TIME, THE ALLIANCE IS MANAGING TWO PROJECTS IN INDIANA AND ALONG THE MILWAUKEE-CHICAGO CORRIDOR THAT ARE TRAINING LAND MANAGERS TO INTEGRATE CLIMATE SMART DATA AND METRICS INTO COASTAL RESTORATION PROJECTS.IN SUPPORT OF FUNDING FOR THESE TYPES OF ACTIVITIES ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES, THE ALLIANCE CO-CHAIRED THE HEALING OUR WATERS COALITION AND WORKED CONSISTENTLY TO SUPPORT FEDERAL INVESTMENT IN RESTORATION THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES RESTORATION INITIATIVE. IN ADDITION, WE COMMUNICATED TO MEMBERS OF CONGRESS THE IMPORTANCE OF THE CLEAN WATER STATE REVOLVING FUND IN IMPROVING THE TIMELINESS AND COST-EFFECTIVENESS OF CRITICAL MUNICIPAL SEWAGE INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS. | Description |

THE STAFF WORKS EACH DAY TO ASSURE THAT THE GREAT LAKES CAN BE SAFELY ENJOYED BY PEOPLE AND WILDLIFE FOR GENERATIONS. THE ALLIANCE CHAMPIONS AND ENFORCES EXISTING POLICIES, SEARCHES FOR PLACES WHERE EXISTING POLICIES ARE FAILING THE LAKES AND USES POLICY REFORM, LEGAL TOOLS AND CITIZEN ACTIONS TO FORCE IMPROVEMENTS.IN 2013, THE ALLIANCE CONTINUED ITS LEADERSHIP OF REGIONAL AND ILLINOIS-BASED EFFORTS TO PERMANENTLY PREVENT INVASIVE ASIAN CARP FROM ENTERING THE GREAT LAKES. THE ALLIANCE FACILITATES THE HEALTHY WATER SOLUTIONS COALITIONAN ILLINOIS COALITION COMMITTED TO BRINGING CHICAGO WATER INFRASTRUCTURE INTO THE 21ST CENTURYWHICH THE ALLIANCE BELIEVES WILL PERMANENTLY ADDRESS THE THREAT OF ASIAN CARP AND OTHER INVASIVE SPECIES BY SUPPORTING THE SEPARATION OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND GREAT LAKES WATERSHEDS. THE ALLIANCES YEARS OF WORK ON ADDRESSING COMBINED SEWER OVERFLOWS AROUND THE REGION IS PAYING OFF WITH NEW, STRONGER PERMITS ISSUED IN MILWAUKEE, WI AND DETROIT, MI, AS WELL AS COURT ORDERED IMPROVEMENTS IN CHICAGO, IL. THE MILWAUKEE AND DETROIT SEWAGE TREATMENT PERMITS WERE THE FIRST NATIONALLY TO INCLUDE GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE REQUIREMENTS. THE ALLIANCE CONTINUED ITS LEGAL INTERVENTION IN THE COURT REVIEW OF THE CONSENT DECREE BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES AND THE METROPOLITAN WATER RECLAMATION DISTRICT OF GREATER CHICAGO IN SUPPORT OF REDUCING ELIMINATING COMBINED SEWER OVERFLOWS TO LAKE MICHIGAN. LAST YEAR, THE ALLIANCE HELPED SHEPHERD THE IMPLEMENTATION OF AN IMPROVED BI-NATIONAL GREAT LAKES WATER QUALITY AGREEMENT. THE AGREEMENT INCLUDES A PRECAUTIONARY STAND ON EMERGING CONTAMINANTS, AS WELL AS NEW FOCUS AREAS ADDRESSING CLIMATE CHANGE, HABITAT AND INVASIVE SPECIES. THIS EXPANDED AGREEMENT COMPREHENSIVELY ADDRESSES THE FULL RANGE OF CONCERNS IN THE GREAT LAKES BASIN BUT WILL DEPEND ON ADEQUATE DOMESTIC IMPLEMENTATION FOR SUCCESS.WE WERE SUCCESSFUL IN REDUCING THE AMOUNT OF MERCURY THAT WILL BE RELEASED IN LAKE MICHIGAN THROUGH AN INDUSTRIAL PERMIT AT THE BP-WHITING REFINERY FACILITY IN INDIANA. THE ALLIANCE IS IN THE MIDST OF A NEW PROJECT IN BROWN AND OUTGAMIE COUNTIES, WISCONSIN TO ESTABLISH AN URBAN-RURAL COLLABORATIVE THAT CAN IMPLEMENT WISCONSINS PHOSPHORUS POLLUTION STANDARD UNDER THE CLEAN WATER ACT ON A WATERSHED BASIS IN THE LOWER FOX RIVER. THIS PRECEDENT SETTING ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT STRATEGY WILL HELP ADDRESS THE GROWING PROBLEM OF ALGAE BLOOMS IN GREEN BAY AND THROUGHOUT THE BASIN. ADDITIONALLY, THE ALLIANCE HAS BEEN WORKING TO STRENGTHEN THE GREAT LAKES-ST. LAWRENCE WATER RESOURCE COMPACT COUNCIL TO ENSURE THAT IT IS FULLY STAFFED, FUNDED AND EMPOWERED TO GOVERN THE HISTORIC COMPACT, WHICH BANS DIVERSIONS OF WATER WITH LIMITED EXCEPTIONS AND SETS RESPONSIBLE STANDARDS FOR WATER USE AND CONSERVATION WITHIN THE BASIN. TOWARD THIS END, IN SEPTEMBER ALLIANCE RELEASED A 5TH-ANNIVERSARY REPORT ON COMMUNITIES THAT STRADDLE THE GREAT LAKES WATERSHED BOUNDARY, THE IMPACT THEY COULD HAVE AS DIVERSION APPLICANTS FOR GREAT LAKES WATER AND THE REGIONS LACK OF LEGAL READINESS TO HANDLE THESE PROPOSALS. THE REPORT WAS INTRODUCED WITH A SIGNED LETTER FROM FORMER GOVERNORS BOB TAFT (OH) AND JIM DOYLE (WI) RECOGNIZING THE CRITICAL IMPORTANCE OF THE GREAT LAKES COMPACT. THE ALLIANCE WAS INVITED BY THE NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION (NOAA) TO HELP DEVELOP A MARINE DEBRIS PROGRAM TARGETED SPECIFICALLY TO THE GREAT LAKES. TRADITIONALLY, NOAAS MARINE DEBRIS PROGRAM HAS FOCUSED SOLELY ON THE OCEANS AND THROUGH THIS COMPREHENSIVE, GREAT LAKES FOCUSED PLAN WE WILL GENERATE MORE FUNDING, AWARENESS AND PROGRAM SUPPORT TO THE GREAT LAKES REGION. | Description |

| Description | CULTURE OF CLEAN WATER: THE ENVIRONMENTAL AND ECONOMIC FUTURE OF THE GREAT LAKES REGION DEPENDS ON MAKING THE LAKES A CORNERSTONE OF EVERY DECISION MADE BY THOSE WHO LIVE AND WORK IN THE REGION. THE ALLIANCES PROGRAMS FOSTER THIS PHILOSOPHY THROUGH PROGRAMS THAT REACH INDIVIDUALS, STUDENTS AND EDUCATORS, BUSINESSES AND GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS. THE ALLIANCE FOR THE GREAT LAKES ADOPT-A-BEACH PROGRAM INVOLVES MORE THAN 13,000 VOLUNTEERS WHO CLEAN UP AND MONITOR 352 COASTAL SITES ON ALL FIVE OF THE GREAT LAKES. FROM PICKING UP THOUSANDS OF POUNDS OF TRASH TO RESTORING MANY ACRES OF VITAL DUNE HABITAT TO COLLECTING DATA THAT HAS INFLUENCED STATE AND FEDERAL LAKE POLICY, THE ADOPT-A-BEACH PROGRAM SHOWS TIME AND AGAIN THAT LOCAL ACTION CAN HAVE A BIG IMPACT. RESOURCES AND SUPPORT FROM THE ALLIANCE HELPED TO EXPAND MONITORING AT PENNSYLVANIAS PRESQUE ISLE STATE PARK. FRUSTRATED THAT ONE-AND-DONE BEACH CLEANUPS FAILED TO GAIN MOMENTUM AT PRESQUE ISLE STATE PARK, THE PARKS ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATOR WAS CONFIDENT THE ALLIANCES ADOPT-A-BEACH COULD GAIN TRACTION. SINCE LAUNCHING THE PROGRAM THERE A YEAR AGO, MORE THAN 60 VOLUNTEERS MONITOR 16 BEACHES AT THE PARK, WHICH DRAWS 4 MILLION VISITORS ANNUALLY. THE PROGRAMS DATA-TRACKING COMPONENT KEEPS INTEREST HIGH. BEACHES ARE CLEANER AND DATA GATHERED THROUGH THE PROGRAM WILL HELP DISCOVER SOURCES OF POLLUTION AND HOW TO PREVENT IT. THE ALLIANCE WORKED WITH LOCAL PARTNERS TO DEVELOP PROGRAMS TO CLEAN-UP AND RESTORATION DETROITS BELLE ISLE, A COMMUNITY RESOURCE IN NEED OF ATTENTION. VOLUNTEERS REMOVED 375 TONS OF LARGE DEBRISSUCH AS A SUBMERGED FISHING DOCK, STEEL REBAR AND OLD BUILDING MATERIAL AT NORTH FISHING PIER ON BELLE ISLE IN DETROIT, MI. THE 72 LINEAR FEET OF SHORELINE WAS THEN RESTORED BY PLANTING NATIVE PLANTS. A MONOFILAMENT FISHING RECYCLING PROGRAM WAS LAUNCHED WITH FIVE BINS, ALONG WITH A PERMANENT EDUCATION PROGRAM AT THE DETROIT NATURE ZOO WHICH IS SEEN BY THOUSANDS OF VISITORS EVERY YEAR. MORE THAN 440 VOLUNTEERS HAVE ALREADY CONTRIBUTED 1,425 HOURS OF SERVICE REMOVING SMALL MARINE DEBRIS AT THE SITE. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THIS TYPE OF COASTAL STEWARDSHIP EFFORT HAS BEEN UNDERTAKEN ON BELLE ISLE TO ADDRESS LITTER ISSUES.LAST YEAR FOR THE FIRST TIME, THE ALLIANCE COMPLETED ITS FIRST-EVER THIRD-PARTY EVALUATION OF OUR EDUCATION PROGRAM. THE CORNERSTONE OF OUR PROGRAM IS THE GREAT LAKES IN MY WORLD CURRICULUM, WHICH IS IN THE HANDS OF 2,750 EDUCATORS AND REACHES UPWARDS OF 60,000 STUDENTS A YEAR. EVALUATORS FOUND THAT THE CURRICULUM HELPS TEACHERS GET STUDENTS EXCITED ABOUT LEARNING IN DYNAMIC WAYS THAT ENCOURAGE CRITICAL THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING, WHILE TEACHING ESSENTIAL CONCEPTS. BOTH TEACHERS AND STUDENTS REPORTED POSITIVE CHANGES IN THEIR ATTITUDES ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT AFTER BEING EXPOSED TO THE CURRICULUM. THE FULL REPORT, WHICH IS FILLED WITH BEAUTIFUL PICTURES AND STORIES, CAN BE SEEN ON THE WEBSITE AT WWW.GREATLAKES.ORG/EDUCATION. AN EXCITING COMBINATION OF THE ALLIANCES ADOPT-A-BEACH PROGRAM AND GREAT LAKES IN MY WORLD CURRICULUM ARE HELPING TO IMPROVE STUDENT TEST SCORES AND REDUCE DISCIPLINE PROBLEMS IN THE LAST THREE YEARS AT KRUEGER MIDDLE SCHOOL IN MICHIGAN CITY, IND. THE ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE THEMED SCHOOL TAKES ACTION TO PROTECT ITS COASTAL REGION FROM RISKS OF CLIMATE CHANGE, DEVELOPMENT AND POLLUTION, WHILE ENGAGING STUDENTS IN HANDS-ON LEARNING INCLUDING ACTIVITIES FROM THE ALLIANCES GREAT LAKES IN MY WORLD CURRICULUM. EDUCATORS AT THE SCHOOL NOTE THAT STUDENTS RAISING AWARENESS OF THEIR IMPACT ON THE ENVIRONMENT HAS RESULTED IN A DIFFERENT, POSITIVE ATTITUDE TOWARD LIFE. | Description |
