The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) awarded a $520,000 Project Grant to the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation (NYS OPRHP) through the Geographic Programs - Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (CFDA 66.469).

Educational resources for impacted youth are also anticipated as part of this initiative.
