In June 2024, NOAA announced an important addition to America's National Marine Sanctuary System—Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary.
The 1,722 square-mile area contains waters that act as a gateway between the Great Lakes and the ocean and protect culturally significant places, resources, and artifacts integral to American history and the heritage of Indigenous Peoples.
