The Great Ships Initiative (GSI) is a collaborative effort to end the problem of ship-mediated invasive species in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway System through independent research and demonstration of environmental technology, financial incentives and consistent basin-wide harbor monitoring.

In particular, the GSI has established a land-based Research, Development and Technology Evaluation (RDTE) facility in Superior, Wisconsin to provide intensive testing services to vendors of ballast treatment prospects suitable to Seaway-sized vessels.
