YES,

In a 2006 US Geological Survey, the estimated oil and gas reserves under just the United States side of the Great Lakes stands at 312 million barrels of recoverable oil, and 5.2 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. These estimates are for the US side only and I do not have any estimates for the Canadian side of the lakes. It should also be noted that Lake Michigan is the only great lake that is entirely within the United States.

How are dunes affected by the great lakes?

The Great lakes effect the dunes in many ways. One of the ways the great lakes effect the dunes is by simply being great bodies of fresh water filling in the gaps between the dunes. If there were not a lake there wouldn't be a sand dune. Also the wind that the lake creates moves/pushes up the sand. The great lakes can also affect them in ways that are not so good. Like, if there were no marram grass... then the lakes would effect the dunes and the dunes would pretty much crumble and fall apart right under your feet.
