Great Lakes Legislative Priorities Tracking
gis.glin.net/prdb/index.php
GLIN's September Site of the Month is Great Lakes Legislative Priorities Tracking. Developed by the Great Lakes Commission, this web-based tool provides up-to-date information on Great Lakes legislative priorities. The new site helps to increase support for Great Lakes protection and restoration by providing easy access to the status of federal legislation and appropriations for Great Lakes programs through a single web site. This project is helping to engage a wide array of audiences in the legislative process, as well as informing, educating and building stewardship for the Great Lakes.
