Description
This feature class is housed within the Lake Ontario 2023 ESI Geodatabase but is maintained outside of the traditional NOAA ESI Structure. Vector points in this data set represent unique restoration sites managed by the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI). An abbreviated spreadsheet for the GLRI restoration sites is provided on page xvii of the Lake Ontario 2023 ESI atlas introductory pages. For full GLRI project information, please refer to the spreadsheet available at https://www.glri.us/projects.
