Question
What is the Lake Michigan LaMP?
Answer
With the goal of “restoring and maintaining the chemical, physical and biological integrity of the waters of the Great Lakes Basin Ecosystem,” the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement calls for the development of Lakewide Action and Management Plans (LAMPs) for each Great Lake to guide and assess activities that ensure environmental integrity while supporting economically viable and healthy human communities. The primary purpose of the Lake Michigan LAMP is “to restore and protect the integrity of the Lake Michigan ecosystem through collaborative, place-based partnerships.”The Lake Michigan Forum and Watershed Academy (LMFWA) provides public input to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on the Lake Michigan LAMP and is the medium for direct public involvement in the LAMP process. The LMFWA is a critical link between government, academia, regional planners, industry, and public stakeholders throughout Lake Michigan Basin and enables these entities to share critical information and coordinate actions that restore and protect the integrity of Lake Michigan.
