Grant Description

Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore is a National Park surrounded by an urban/industrial complex. In the mid twentieth century, actions to remove wetlands from the dunes adjacent to southern Lake Michigan which included lands of Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore were initiated. These actions resulted in thousands of acres of wetland being removed from northwest Indiana. Wetland provides numerous ecosystem services including habitat for rare plants, waterfowl and other life forms. Therefore, it is desired to restore historic wetland to Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore.
