NYSDEC invites you to join other regional stakeholders in a basinwide partnership to advance ecosystem-based management (EBM) opportunities for New York's Great Lakes basin, as identified in the state's interim Great Lakes Action Agenda (GLAA).
Meeting objectives include:
- Share information on funding and resources, key project updates and collaborative opportunities relevant to sub basin work plans.
- Discuss progress of EBM demonstration area watersheds and identify next steps.
Four sub-basin work groups provide a unique opportunity to connect, coordinate and collaborate with other groups and agencies working locally and basinwide.
