About the Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Monitoring Program (CWMP) | US EPA About the Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Monitoring Program (CWMP) Institute for Great Lakes Research, Central Michigan University Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Monitoring Program Manager: Matt Pawlowski ( pawlowski. matthew@epa.
gov ) Great Lakes coastal wetlands are important ecosystems that provide habitat for diverse plant and animal communities, ecological functions and opportunities for recreation. Despite their importance, much of these wetlands have been destroyed or degraded over the past century.
To assess the status of Great Lakes coastal wetlands and inform restoration and protection efforts, the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) supports the Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Monitoring Program (CWMP). The CWMP is a collaboration between EPA’s Great Lakes National Program Office and academic partners located in both the United States and Canada.
The CWMP uses a comprehensive approach to sample and assess all major coastal wetlands throughout the Great Lakes Basin using standardized procedures.
Monitoring of birds, amphibians, fish, macroinvertebrates and plant communities, and water quality occurs at a subset of the Great Lakes coastal wetland sites annually, and the data collected at these sites are used to assess the status and trends of Great Lakes coastal wetland conditions.
Since the program began sampling in 2011, over 1,000 wetland sites have been visited, resulting in the monitoring of over 400,000 acres of coastal wetland habitat.

EPA's Innovative Water Infrastructure Workforce Development competition closes October 5, 2026. The agency says up to 15 awards across four project areas, but Project Area 1 alone carries a $7.8 million ceiling against a $10.8 million pot. That tension is the single most important strategic fact in the NOFO — here is how to read it, which lane is least competed, and what a three-week runway means for your submission.
Read articleEPA announced $3.5 million in competitive Clean Water Act Section 319 funding for Tribes on September 10, 2026, with a $175,000 per-applicant cap and roughly 20 awards. Applications close November 9, 2026. But eligibility was frozen as of October 10, 2025, and every application must contain an on-the-ground BMP project traceable to an approved management program. Here is how the gates actually work.
Read articleThe FY2026 Innovative Water Infrastructure Workforce Development Grant (EPA-OW-OWM-26-03) closes October 5, 2026 with $10.8 million, up to 15 cooperative agreements, and a Project Area 1 ceiling of $7.8 million.
