• To measure the economic benefits of tourism-based activities for the Grand Calumet River Waukegan Harbor Areas of Concern following cleanup and restoration.
• To identify socioeconomic benefits of community revitalization through increased jobs due to robust growth in the tourism sector.
• To test whether gentrification or preference-based sorting predominates restoration and remediation incentives in contrast to a more stable resident population.
• To engage in outreach with local stakeholders and communicate findings on economic benefits of environmental projects.

The goal of this project is to develop a web-based model that calculates the expected change in water demand with development and relates it to expected availability.

• Determine whether ruffe and gobies display overlap in use of habitat and food and thus may compete for benthic resources
• Determine whether zebra mussels will modify ruffe – goby interactions directly by serving as a major food resource for gobies or indirectly by increasing benthic heterogeneity and associated invertebrate production,
• Determine how yellow perch will respond to coexistence with ruffe and gobies in the presence or absence of zebra mussels
