Great Lakes Restoration Initiative
Collaboration between the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Illinois Natural History Surveys, and the City of Chicago has resulted in a substantial priority project list for the GLRI. Priority projects will help create jobs, as well as improve conditions and provide for more research and information. Projects have been selected according to the GLRI priority focus areas set forth…
Five focus areas have been determined as the top priorities for which initiative action is necessary:
-
Accountability, monitoring, evaluation, communication, and partnership.
-
Habitat and wildlife protection and restoration
-
Invasive species
-
Near shore health and nonpoint source point pollution
-
Toxic substances and areas of concern
