The DIKE 14 COMMITTEE welcomes and is
open to all persons and organizations interested in the
conservation of the existing 88-acre Lake Erie coastal
wildlife area at Dike 14, for the benefit of wildlife
and people. Diverse habitats at Dike 14 provide
essential sanctuary to significant numbers and diversity
of migratory birds as well as refuge for nesting and
resident birds and other wildlife. Unique to
Cleveland's shoreline, this wildlife area provides the
only quality habitat for migratory birds along 100-miles
of urbanized Lake Erie coast between Huron and Mentor.
The Dike 14 Committee advocates the preservation of Dike
14 as a nature preserve with judicious public access.
Since January 2001, the Dike 14 Committee has functioned
as a clearinghouse, an information source and a point of
contact for Dike 14 issues.
