The 2012 Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement includes a commitment to publish a report on relevant and available groundwater science. In response to this commitment, a draft report has been completed that documents groundwater science relevant to the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement. The draft report is a product of extensive collaboration among experts in a variety of subject areas and summarizes current knowledge on groundwater in the Great Lakes region.
Canada and the United States are seeking comments on the draft report:
- Executive Summary of “Groundwater science relevant to the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement: A status report” (PDF, 82 KB)
- Groundwater science relevant to the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement: A status report (PDF, 12.6 MB)
Comments were accepted using the Contact Us form until January 31, 2016.
This effort is being led by the Groundwater Annex Subcommittee.
