GLIN==> IJC schedules public consultations on St. Clair River Report

The International Joint Commission (IJC) announced today that it will
hold public consultations from March 22-31, 2010 to invite comment on
the report of its International Upper Great Lakes Study Board entitled 
Impacts on Upper Great Lakes Water Levels: St. Clair River.

The report concludes the first phase of the International Upper Great
Lakes Study and examines the physical changes in the St. Clair River
since 1962. It recommends that measures to remediate the increased
conveyance, or water-carrying capacity, of the river not be undertaken
at this time. It also recommends that mitigation measures in the St.
Clair River be examined as part of the comprehensive assessment of the
future effects of climate change in the second phase of the study.

 

The full text of the IJC's announcement, along with the schedule of
consultations, is attached.
