IUGLS is examining whether the regulation plan for Lake Superior outflows at Sault Ste. Marie might be improved to take into consideration changing interests and changing climate. In its first phase, the Study examined whether ongoing changes in the St. Clair River might be affecting upper Great Lakes water levels. The Study Board's findings and recommendations <http://pub.iugls.org/en/Other_Publications/IUGLS_Summary_Report_EN.pdf> in this regard were published in December, 2009, and the public has been invited to comment on them before the IJC makes recommendations to governments. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
