Each region will be expected to:
1) Establish a regional coordination group to oversee the planning and implementation of the research and information strategy;
2) Conduct a bottom-up needs assessment with broad user and stakeholder input;
3) Identify research and information gaps; 4) Develop a research and information plan for the region that
prioritizes actions according to management-critical needs; 5) Develop coordination mechanisms to ensure the transfer of
technology and information to the appropriate end users; and 6) Provide an ongoing platform for coordination, collaboration, and
resource sharing among participants.

Great Lakes Regional Research Information Network
Plans should include:1) a clear statement of the major regional ocean and coastal management
issues, 2) an outline of existing scientific and informational resources, 3) an analysis of the information necessary to address the critical issues,
and 4) a prioritized list of actions to be taken.
In addition to addressing research needs, the plans should discuss how observational data and decision-support tools might be integrated with the research to best support the needs of the management community.
Each plan will include a prioritized list of forecast products that would aid
in the transition toward regional ecosystem-based management.

The plan should take into account existing plans and ongoing planning efforts by various regional and local organizations.
Where there is already substantial ongoing activity, the planning efforts should be designed to add value to those efforts, for example by expanding the scope of existing plans, or by establishing priorities among already identified needs.

Great Lakes Regional Research Information Network
Objectives1) To build upon the LEMN model and
establish a voluntary, non-regulatory, binational structure for coordinating, communicating and collaborating (3 C’s) on research, education, and outreach efforts on each of the Great Lakes and an overall network for the entire region.
Great Lakes Regional Research Information Network
Objectives
2)To provide an ongoing platform (network) for coordination, collaboration, communication and resource sharing and assist the Council of Great Lakes Research Managers (IJC) in developing and implementing its Great Lakes Research Strategy.
Great Lakes Regional Research Information Network
Objectives
3) To assist and better coordinate academic research scientists and to enhance the interactions between academic and agency scientists as they all focus on Great Lakes research priorities.
Great Lakes Regional Research Information Network
Objectives
4) To provide a single point of contact for each lake to reach all research scientists on that lake
