SAVE THE DATE:
Conveners Meeting of the Great Lakes Regional Collaboration
Meeting information

The task force brings together ten U.S. Cabinet and Agency heads to coordinate restoration of the Great Lakes. Created by an Executive Order from President Bush on May 18, 2004, the Task Force will focus on outcomes like cleaner water and sustainable fisheries, and target measurable results. Together, the ten agencies administer more than 140 federal programs that fund and manage restoration efforts.

In addition, the President directed that EPA work with relevant states and cities to convene a regional collaborative effort. EPA Administrator Mike Leavitt met with the Chairs of the Council of Great Lakes Governors and the Great Lakes Cities Initiative on May 18, 2004 and scheduled meetings with all eight Great Lakes Governors during the remainder of May.
