Asian Carp Lawsuit Continues

Posted: Updated:

Five states are continuing a lawsuit against the federal government demanding action to keep the Asian Carp from reaching the Great Lakes. Legislation approved last month requires the Army Corps of Engineers to complete an Asian carp prevention plan within 18 months. A quicker timetable was one of the requests in the suit filed in 2010 by Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania.
