FY 2017 Great Lakes Restoration CrosscutThis report represents an accounting of Federal funding for Great Lakes restoration activities. This report isprovided to Congress in response to Section 738 of the Financial Services and General GovernmentAppropriations Act, 2014 (Division Eof Public Law 113-76, the 2014 Consolidated Appropriations Act.The Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 Budget continues the Administration's commitment to Great Lakes environmental restorationby requesting 731 million for high priority programs and projects in the Great Lakes watershed. This is a 157 milliondecrease (-18%) from FY 2016 levels.FY 2017 funding levels will allow for a robust Great Lakes program reflective of the region's environmental significance.Funding will support a number of critical restoration activities, including projects for aquatic invasive species includingAsian carp, toxics and contaminated sediments, nonpoint source pollution, and habitat protection and restoration.This crosscut presents information on Federal funding from FY 2012 through the FY 2017 Budget for Great Lakesrestoration work in the following formats: Total Federal funding by agency, including national and Great Lakes programs and projects; Agency funding for national programs; Agency funding for Great Lakes Programs; and Agency funding for Great Lakes projectsIt is important to note that for national programs, in many instances the numbers shown for FY 2017, and in some casesFY 2016, are extrapolated either from past funding provided to the region, or by using a percentage of land in the GreatLakes basin relative to the rest of the State. The funding ultimately provided to the Great Lakes basin through nationalprograms may differ from these estimates.A few other funding notes are necessary. All Federal agency dollars are reported in millions; programs and projects thathave not received at least 500,000 in funding over the period of FY 2012 to FY 2017 are excluded, and rounding errorsmay occur. FY 2013 totals represent funding levels after sequestration. Finally, FY 2017 allocations shown for the GreatLakes Restoration Initiative are provisional and final allocations may differ.3
