Land and water governance on the shores of the Laurentian Great Lakes
The Laurentian Great Lakes Basin is large and complex, as is its institutional setting. Given these characteristics, Great Lakes boundaries are both horizontal and fluid, and governance at the Great Lakes water/land interface implicates at least four different frontiers of planning and management. While substantial multinational and sub-national policy regimes have formed over the last century to improve Great Lakes water quantity and water quality management, parallel arrangements have not formed to manage better shoreland boundaries and frontiers.
