Grant Description

The purpose of this funding is to provide an opportunity for eligible applicants to assess exposure to Great Lakes contaminants and to advance public health actions to protect people. Annex 2 of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement (1987) requires these state governments to develop and implement Lakewide Management Plans for the lake waters and Remedial Action Plans for areas of concern. This is an applied public health project focused on implementing public health actions such as health assessment, health education, baseline community health status assessment, inventories of current Great Lakes legacy and Brownfield sites to protect the health of vulnerable or susceptible subpopulations within the Great Lakes basin which have exposure or potentially exposure risk to environmental contaminants associated with the Great Lakes legacy or Brownfield sites.
