This feature class is housed within the Lake Michigan 2025 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 in the Lake Michigan 2025 ESI atlas introductory pages. For full GLRI project information, please refer to the spreadsheet available at https://www.glri.us/projects. The ESI data are intended to provide baseline environmental data for oil spill planning and response. The Clean Water Act with amendments by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires response plans for immediate and effective protection of sensitive resources. The ESI data may be appropriate for many other coastal management efforts, though the original intent should be kept in mind. The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) project sites were added to the Lake Ontario ESI for awareness of past, current, and potentially future restoration efforts within the Great Lakes. completed ESI Program Manager 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 orr.esi@noaa.gov pointOfContact ESI Program Manager 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 orr.esi@noaa.gov custodian asNeeded Data content is considered static once published.

Management boundaries are not to be considered legal boundaries. Edges may have been altered for cartographic processes. Note that the ESI database should not be used to the exclusion of other pertinent data or information held by state or federal agencies or other organizations. Likewise, information contained in the database cannot be used in place of consultations with environmental, natural resource, and cultural resource agencies, or in place of field surveys. Recognize that the information contained in the ESI database represents known concentration areas or occurrences of natural, cultural, and human-use resources, but does not necessarily represent the full distribution or range of each species or resource. This is particularly important to recognize when considering potential impacts to protected resources, such as endangered species, wetlands, etc. Besides the above warnings, there are no use constraints on these data. Acknowledgment of the originators, publishers, contributors, and sources listed would be appreciated in products derived from these data. otherRestrictions Distribution Liability: Although these data have been processed and used successfully on a computer system at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), no warranty, expressed or implied, is made by NOAA regarding the utility of the data on any other system, nor shall the act of distribution constitute any such warranty. NOAA warrants the delivery of this product in computer-readable format. If problems are encountered in downloading the ESI data or with file corruption, contact NOAA (see Distributor). These data represent a snapshot in time and temporal changes may have occurred. The data are not intended to include all biological or human-use resources present in an area; they focus on species and resources particularly sensitive to oiling. In the event of a spill, they should be used for a first assessment only. The data providers are the experts with regard to individual resources. They should be contacted to confirm if more current data exist or if in-depth information is needed about a particular resource. unclassified NOAA Data Management Plan (DMP) NOAA/NMFS/EDM 75920 https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/inportserve/waf/noaa/nos/orr/dmp/pdf/75920.pdf WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link NOAA Data Management Plan (DMP) NOAA Data Management Plan for this record on InPort. information crossReference vector textTable eng; US environment The software packages used to develop the atlas are Environmental Systems Research Institute's ArcGIS for Desktop(R), ArcPro(R), and SQL SERVER(R).

The process includes a standardized data entry methodology, data review by in-house and external resource experts, a final Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) process, and multiple automated logical consistency checks. For a more detailed evaluation of source data attribute accuracy, check the sources listed in the Lineage section. Conceptual Consistency A multi-stage error checking process, described in the above Attribute Accuracy Report, is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. This process includes multiple automated logical consistency checks that test the files for missing or duplicate data, rules for proper coding, GIS topological consistencies, and SQL SERVER(R) to ArcGIS(R) consistencies. A final review is made by the GIS manager, before the complete Geodatabase and metadata are created. After the data are delivered to NOAA, they are again subjected to several consistency checks, and processed into the final delivery format. Great Lakes Restoration Initiative project locations were evaluated and duplicate point locations removed. A feature ID was calculated for each point location. The associated table is GLRI_UPDATED. The Feature ID in this dataset relates to the Feature ID in GLRI_UPDATED as well as the ID on the abbreviated spreadsheet (found in the Lake Michigan 2025 ESI atlas introductory pages). Additionally, a unique, atlas-specific feature ID (Lake Michigan, LM%) was created for each project at each point location. Where the project title and focus area were the same, those records were collapsed into one unique feature ID. The years were formatted as a range to represent the years project(s) were funded for each unique feature ID. 2025-05-01T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor Source Contribution: GLRI_UNIQUE_SITES INFO; TABULAR DATA.
