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.
