The first is to provide a critique of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement of 1972 between the United States and Canada on the 25th anniversary of the Agreement The broad purpose of that agreement is to protect and conserve the physical, chemical and biological integrity of Great Lakes waters within the context of an ecosystem approach to safeguard the public health and welfare of the people of both countries.
