sustainable economic development on the southern coast of Lake Michigan.
The conference focused on five general topics: Coastal Economic Development
Opportunities; Infrastructure and Siting of New Facilities; Open Space
and Recreational Opportunities; Ecosystem Capacity for Economic Develop-ment;
and Bi-State and Regional Coordination of Development. Recommendations
developed by conference participants as well as papers presented on the
