The workshop was part of an education series sponsored by the IJC and the federal governments of Canada and the United States. The workshop was intended to provide the latest research and understanding on how the high Great Lakes water levels in the late 80's naturally impacted nearshore and shoreline processes.
A significant concern in the late 1980's was shoreline erosion and subsequent damage and loss of lakeshore homes. This workshop's was intended to educate and inform everyone on the natural processes at work along the shore and how human shoreline revetments and engineering structures were causing irreversible shoreline damage.
