IWF News – Indiana Wildlife Federation Director, Emily Wood’s reported that our U.S. House of Representatives passed the Water Resources Development Act of 2020. The resolution includes provisions to authorize construction at the Brandon Road Lock and Dam in Illinois, which serves as a choke-point and final barrier to prevent Asian carp and other invasive species from entering Lake Michigan. Also, they are now considering this same type of action in the TVA – Tennessee Valley Authority waters to prevent the Asian Carp from spreading into those waters too. We are now waiting for the vote to authorize funding for 34 Army Corp of Engineer Projects including this Lock and Dam Barrier Project in Joliet, Illinois by the U.S. Senate. |
