The IJC was established by the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909. The
IJC is an independent international organization that assists the Governments
of the United States and Canada in preventing and resolving issues and disputes
regarding the use of water and in addressing other environmental issues
affecting or potentially affecting either or both of the countries. The
IJC operates through Section Offices in Washington,
D.C., and Ottawa,
Ontario, and a binational, jointly-funded

the Commission primarily in the discharge of the responsibilities assigned to

The GLRO is staffed by multidisciplinary scientific, policy, technical, and
administrative personnel from the Canadian and United States civil services.
