1. Outline--25 Minutes Presentation Why - Benefits of creating a unified theme and fostering information sharing: Theoretically – economy in bulk; not re-inventing the wheel; increased efficiency; team approach; Build Capacity for on-going efforts; Uniqueness of UWEX - connection to research and other experts – Steve Deller/Economics; reduce work overall; pull from resources already developed; Allow you to tap into resources that can be localized to a particular AOC; Partnership that complements the Office of Great Lakes; Allows DNR to focus on the more technical while UWEX can focus on Outreach and Communication. Value – helps to unify the AOCs that are separated by long distance – umbrella along with OGL; Explore- Reconnect with the Rivers – either take them for granted or think of them as a lost cause; positive twist; vetted them; peer and stakeholder; How the them evolved. Field Trips – public, tac/cac, agencies Publications, display, presentations, kiosks; fact sheet; newsletters; Scholarships to the conference – engages and educates; Camp YCoda; St. Louis River Alliance; UWEX - Engrained Partnerships; Celebration.

3. Our goal is to help build capacity for ongoing work to remove impairments and delist the Areas of Concern. A team approach across the state allows us to help each other with specialized skills: -messaging -design -website development We don’t have to reinvent the wheel, but instead can create templates for fact sheets, displays, brochures, photo library, events…

Uniqueness of UWEX - connection to research and other experts – Steve Deller/Economics; reduce work overall; pull from resources already developed; Allow you to tap into resources that can be localized to a particular AOC; Partnership that complements the Office of Great Lakes; Allows DNR to focus on the more technical while UWEX can focus on Outreach and Communication. Value – helps to unify the AOCs that are separated by long distance – umbrella along with OGL;
To get a sense of how GLRI has invested in Wisconsin, the Department of Natural Resources has added five project coordinators-one for each AOC, and four technical staff in Madison (QUAPP, monitoring, sediment, GIS) plus an AOC coordinator Kendra Axness.
Explore- Reconnect with the Rivers – either take them for granted or think of them as a lost cause; positive twist; vetted them; peer and stakeholder; How the them evolved. Field Trips – public, tac/cac, agenciesPublications, display, presentations, kiosks; fact sheet; newsletters; Scholarships to the conference – engages and educates; Camp YCoda; St. Louis River Alliance; UWEX - Engrained Partnerships;Celebration.
