Renewed litigation in the Asian Carp dispute
The Great Lakes Law Blog from Professor Noah Hall informs that five American States have filed an action in a federal district court against the Army Corps of Engineers and the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago to protect Lake Michigan from the invasive Asian carp. This follows a decision by the Supreme Court not to hear the case earlier this year.
It will be interesting to see whether Ontario will continue to represent Canadian interests in this case as it did before the Supreme Court and intervene in the file before the federal district court.
