The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 5 awarded the City of Superior a $100,000 Project Grant under the Geographic Programs - Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (CFDA 66.469) on August 1, 2025, with a completion deadline of December 31, 2027. The project focuses on identifying and selecting site improvement features and completing detailed designs and plans for future implementation at Wisconsin Point in Superior, Wisconsin. These efforts directly support the St. Louis River Area of Concern and are intended to remove beneficial use impairments related to loss of fish and wildlife habitat and degraded aesthetics.

The primary deliverables include final design plans and cost estimates for the selected site improvement features. The intended outcomes encompass increased public availability and use of the restored areas, with direct beneficiaries including local community residents, Fond du Lac Band members, and all visitors to Wisconsin Point. No subawards are included in this assistance agreement, with all work performed directly by the City of Superior. This planning and design phase will establish the foundation for subsequent environmental restoration and public access improvements consistent with Great Lakes Restoration Initiative objectives.
