The main objective of this agreement is to continue offshore geologic mapping on the bottom of Lake Michigan. Novel sediment sampling, geophysical imaging, and offshore lake-bottom mapping will continue adjacent to, and along the Lake County coastal area, adjoining a recently completed three-dimensional geologic map (Brown, 2015).
