Agreement was signed by the Great Lakes Governors and Premiers on December 13,
2005. In the Agreement, the Governors
and Premiers committed to develop regional water conservation and efficiency
objectives which would then be used to inform the development of State and Provincial
water conservation and efficiency goals and objectives. These objectives will later shape State and
Provincial water conservation programs. The draft objectives now available for public comment have been
developed by representatives of the Great Lakes States, Ontario and Québec with
input from Tribes and First Nations, and regional stakeholders. Following a review of the public comments, revisions
will be considered to the draft objectives.
Action by the Regional Body on finalized objectives is anticipated later
this year. For more information, visit
