The International Joint Commission (IJC) is seeking public feedback on the Canadian and United States governments’ latest actions to protect, restore, and enhance Great Lakes water quality. The IJC is collecting public input through virtual and in-person engagement activities, an online survey, and written submissions until December 23, 2022.
The IJC will facilitate two in-person sessions during the Canadian and US governments’ 2022 Great Lakes Public Forum in Niagara Falls, Ontario, from September 27 to 29. Registration is free and open to the public. In conjunction with the forum, the IJC is also hosting a free, hybrid (in-person and virtual) public meeting the evening of September 28 at the Niagara Falls Convention Centre in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Visit https://bit.ly/3BTppos for details.
The IJC will also host workshops at conferences including the Great Lakes Coastal Symposium and the Native American Fish and Wildlife Society Great Lakes Regional Conference.
In the fall, the IJC will host virtual opportunities to provide feedback with a series of webinars, one for each of the five Great Lakes, a virtual business roundtable in conjunction with the binational Council for the Great Lakes Region and virtual meetings organized in conjunction with the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Cities Initiative and other Great Lakes organizations.
All engagement activities are listed and updated at http://ijc.org/en/2022-Great-Lakes-Progress-Input.
