RAP Updates and Documents
for Michigan Areas of Concern

Remedial Action Plans (RAPs) have been developed and are being implemented for Michigan's 14 designated Areas of Concern (AOC). Below is a list of existing RAP documents for each AOC, organized by lake basin. New RAP documents will be added to this list as they are developed.

Biennial RAP Updates

In Michigan, RAP updates are prepared every 2 years for each AOC, and are the primary tool for documenting and communicating progress to the public and agencies. These documents are brief, user-friendly updates on recent remedial actions and assessments in the AOC. They are prepared by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment (DNRE) in consultation with the local public advisory group (PAC) and U.S. EPA. The most recent RAP updates for each Michigan AOC are linked to below.

Historical RAP Documents

Because of the large size of the original RAP documents, they cannot be easily posted online or downloaded. Thus, the Statewide Public Advisory Council has compiled these documents and will make them available free of charge on a CD. The documents are provided in Adobe PDF format and can be searched by keywords. To request a CD, contact Erika Jensen with the Council's support staff at the Great Lakes Commission, 734-971-9135, ejensen@glc.org.
