Consent Decree

On December 20, 2023, the Coalition to Protect Michigan’s Resources (CPMR) filed its appeal to the entrance of the Great Lakes Consent Decree in the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.

The appeal focused on the District Court’s disregarding biological evidence that the 2023 Decree could harm the resource irreparably.

CPMR presented expert witnesses and biological data showing that the massive expansion of gillnets into new areas of the Great Lakes is unsustainable and will decimate local fisheries in Michigan.
