This section of the materials introduces you to a layer of institutions, actors, and legal or law-like texts that exist for the most part above the national level--in this instance, the binational regulation of pollution in the Great Lakes by the United States and Canada. This type of situation, which is becoming increasingly common in environmental regulation, implies some different roles and responsibilities for lawyers--and some different opportunities for representing interests or clients.

The Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement: Successes and ShortcomingsGreat Lakes Water Quality Agreement • July 6th, 2022
In efforts of restoration and preservation of the Great Lakes, 20% of the Earth’s surface freshwater, Canada and America formed the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement (GLWQA) in 1972, prompting powerful legislation, like the Clean Water Act. Despite many progressive actions to maintain the lakes, specific resolutions were not as effective due to government administration and economic constraints. This project will investigate the successes and failures of the GLWQA, analyzing the legislature economically and politically. To conduct our research, we will interview water quality administrations, councils, and policymakers on a local, state, and federal level, including our cities’ water administrations, our Michigan’s Department of the Environment, and federal EPA offices. Our questions will be geared toward understanding how the GLWQA has changed over time, how it affects the interviewee, and the challenges the interviewee faces when working under the GLWQA.

Some sections of the LaMP 2000 document and the background reports used to produce them have undergone extensive review by the LaMP agencies and the public. Others have not. Some sections are incomplete and identify data gaps and next steps for LaMP 2002. The LaMP 2000 should be viewed as a working document of the dynamic LaMP process. The LaMP 2000 is presented in a loose-leaf format with general tabbed sections that can be inserted into a three-ring binder. This format will allow easy updates, additions of new material and removal of outdated information. The LaMPs for Lake Erie, Lake Michigan and Lake Superior have common chapters, but differ in format and amount of detail. With the help of the many partners and the public, we will be able to take the best qualities from each and design LaMPs for 2002 that are more concise and user-friendly.
