This includes Great Lakes as well as the tributary watersheds that drain into them. GLC projects and initiatives are directed at rural and urban settings, as well as on a watershed scale.

Addressing complex water quality challenges involves scaling up proven approaches and testing new ones. Water quality trading, Blue Accounting, and green infrastructure are examples of innovative approaches we are exploring to connect upstream and downstream water users. The Water Quality Senior Program Specialist will assist in all aspects of the GLC’s water quality program.

  • Staying abreast of science, policy, tools and techniques to augment  contributions to individual project teams and the GLC’s water quality program overall;
