Indiana Lake Michigan Coastal Program  Sign designed by Kristi Richard The
purpose of the Lake Michigan Coastal Program
(LMCP) is to support coordination and
partnerships among local, state, and federal
agencies and local organizations for the
protection and sustainable use of natural
and cultural resources in the Lake Michigan
region. Through the LMCP, Indiana participates
in the Coastal
Zone Management Program with 33 other
coastal states and territories to protect,
restore, and responsibly develop Indiana's
coastal area.
Development of the LMCP will make more than $1 million (based on the proposed 2002 Congressional budget) available annually to implement the LMCP and for grants to communities in northwest Indiana. Examples of how these funds might be used include: ·
