Two New Buoys Bring Wave Monitoring to Lower Green Bay

June 10, 2026

Buoy Launch 2024NEW Water was on of the five organizations selected through the Great Lakes Observing System (GLOS) Coastal Monitoring RFP for funding a coastal hazard project. NEW Water will deploy three buoys in Lower Green Bay (two new and one upgraded), each equipped with wave and weather monitoring. These buoys will help fill a critical observing gab by better characterizing local wave conditions - supporting safer decisions for recreational boaters and commercial vessels. 

Updates and data will be shared by GLOS as they become available (via Seagull). To explore the other coastal monitoring projects funded through this GLOS effort, visit: GLOS: Coastal Monitoring Awarded RFP Projects

NEW Water has two long-term monitoring stations to help tell the story about water quality and aid in understanding our receiving water. Check out our buoys: Aquatic Monitoring: Water Data
