Through this funding opportunity, NOAA aims to support habitat restoration projects that will lead to significant and sustainable benefits for Great Lakes native fish species. As the largest freshwater system on earth, the Great Lakes are an important ecological and economic resource.
The Great Lakes face many threats, however, including habitat degradation, oil spills and other pollution, overfishing, and the spread of invasive species. The quality and quantity of fish habitat in the Great Lakes has declined for decades and continues to be a concern. Without the right habitat, fish cannot build their populations, and that means fewer—and less healthy—fish.
Projects selected through this funding opportunity will help sustain the multiple benefits the Great Lakes by: Supporting valuable fisheries and coastal resources Improving the quality of our water by restoring coastal wetlands Providing recreational opportunities for the public’s use and enjoyment Increasing the resilience of Great Lakes communities Applicant Webinar Materials NOAA hosted a public webinar with information for potential applicants on Friday, September 13, 2024.
