Besadny Secretary February 23, 1988 File Ref: 8250I I am pleased to approve the Lower Green Bay Remedial Action Plan as part of Wisconsins Water Quality Management Plan. The plan is an important contribution to Great Lakes cleanup. It is also an important step in the long-term effort of Fox River and Green Bay communities, industries, and citizens to restore and protect this valuable state resource. The lower Green Bay and Fox River area is one of 42 Great Lakes "Areas of Concern" identified by the International Joint Commission because of ongoing water quality problems. This area represents an important resource for the people of the State of Wisconsin. During the past two years, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources worked cooperatively with other agencies, researchers, and the citizens of northeast Wisconsin to develop a remedial action plan for the Lower Green Bay and the Fox River. A Citizens Advisory Committee and four technical advisory committees advised the Department in the preparation of the plan. All groups worked together to identify management goals for the bay and river for the year 2000. They also developed 16 Key Actions and many specific recommendations necessary to achieve their "Desired Future State." The plans goals call for restoring swimming in the Bay and River and providing a fishery and ecosystem that is free from the effects of toxic contamination. These and other goals described in the Citizen Advisory Committee "Desired Future State" are very worthwhile goals. Judging by the response at the public hearing and the commitment of those that contributed to the preparation of the plan, there is great opportunity to achieve the water quality goals laid out in the plan. The plan incorporates the updating requirements of Public Law 92-500 as amended by Public Law 95-217 and as outlined in Federal Regulations 40 CFR, Part 35. This planning document is governed by the process for adoption of areawide water quality management plans as set forth in NR 121.08(1)(a) and (b). Sincerely, .A C.D.

Besadny, Secretary Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Box 7921 Madison, WI 53707 Dear Secretary Besadny: The Lower Green Bay Remedial Action Plan is the culmination of nearly two years of effort by local citizens, elected officials, DNR personnel and our scientific community. As County Executive, I am pleased to support this plan which builds upon the tremendous success we have experienced in water quality improvement over the past 15 years. For the citizens of Brown County, this plan presents an incredible opportunity to improve the environment in which they choose to live. Many challenges remain and we must all work hard to solve the difficult problems facing us. It is imperative that all concentrate their efforts toward implementation of the plans recommendations. you that Brown County is prepared to do its share. Thomas D. Cuene Brown County Executive TDC:cld OFFICE OF THE MAYOR WISCONSIN ROOM 200 - CITY HALL - 436-3621 5 4 3 0 1 SAMUEL J. HALLOIN Mayor February 23, 1988 C. D. Besadny, Secretary Wisconsin Dept. of Natural Resources Box 7921 Madison, WI 53707 Dear Secretary Besadny: As Mayor of the City of Green Bay, I want to express my support for the Lower Green Bay Remedial Action Plan. The Citizens Advisory Committee and Technical Advisory Committees have worked hard for nearly two years preparing this plan. The individuals who served on those committees deserve our wholehearted congratulations and gratitude on the plans completion. The technical analysis and implementation strategy in this plan will serve as a basis for the future management of our water resources. As Mayor of Green Bay, I look forward to participating in the implementation process. Sincerely, Samuel J. Halloin Mayor -vi- Members of the Citizens Advisory Committee and DNR staff worked together to develop the Lower Green Bay Remedial Action Plan. (Photo by Dave Crehore) Introduction to the Remedial Action Plan from the Citizen Advisory Committee "We live here. This is our home. For some of us it is our ancestral home. Our families arrived here centuries ago. Others of us have only recently arrived but we all have a common commitment to the land and water which surrounds us. We are very aware of the many decades that have passed in which human activities created environmental problems here in the Green Bay area. We are also aware that in the past decade or so many investments of both private and public funds occurred so the River and the Bay could be cleaned up. Now we are learning more about how difficult it will be to continue this i mprovement process. We are committed to this progress. We are willing to work together, seeking the proper changes and improvements. We are not afraid to lobby for new laws, for both private and public funds. We are afraid that some of the current institutional structures and the present division management activities to solve these problems will not be enough for cost-effective results. We are not limited by the past. We are committed to the future. Our general goal is to lay the foundation for a quality life experience here in the Green Bay area for our children and our grandchildren. This report is the result of many people working together to provide ideas to achieve that goal. It is called a remedial action plan. For us it is much more. It is a significant gift to future generations. Many of us will not be alive early in the 21st Century when some of these ideas will begin to bear fruit. Our involvement in this activity, therefore, is similar to planting a seed." This statement was read by Chairman John Rose at the January 22, 1987 public hearing and was reported in full in the January 23, 1987 Green Bay Press Gazette.

The proposed action addresses NOAA’s responsibilities under the NMSA to identify, designate, and protect areas of the marine and Great Lakes environment with special national significance due to their conservation, recreational, ecological, historical, scientific, cultural, archaeological, educational, or aesthetic qualities as national marine sanctuaries. ONMS has developed five alternatives for the designation, and the DEIS evaluates the environmental consequences of each under NEPA. The DEIS also serves as a resource assessment under the NMSA, documenting present and potential uses of the areas considered in the alternatives.

  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.
