Support for Water Resources Management
The Commission's large-scale, binational collaborative effort will yield, in unprecedented detail, a status assessment of Great Lakes water resources, an inventory of the sources and use of Great Lakes water, and enhanced understanding of the ecological consequences of such use. The Commission is actively involved in research, analysis, policy development, and advocacy associated with issues of water quantity management.
