Prepared by
The Partnership for the Saginaw Bay Watershed
Beginning in November 2009, the Partnership for the Saginaw Bay Watershed embarked on a project to reassess progress toward meeting the habitat restoration targets in the Saginaw River/Bay Area of Concern (AOC) that were established in 2000. When the 2008 analysis of protected wetlands was conducted the Partnership agreed that until the targets are achieved a biennial review is desirable to assess progress. Once the habitat targets are met the Partnership can petition the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for formal delisting of this Beneficial Use Impairment (BUI).
