    • Train contractors and landscape professionals about shoreline technologies and bioengineered erosion control.
    • Educate property owners about natural shorelines and technologies that benefit lake ecosystems.
    • Research, demonstrate, and develop natural shoreline technologies that benefit lake ecosystems.
    • Encourage local and state policies that promote natural shoreline management
