Asian Carp Integrated Control and Containment
Silver carp in Fox River, a tributary of the Illinois River Science Center Objects
Increased threat of Asian carp entering the Great Lakes and spreading to other basins such as the Upper Mississippi River and Ohio River basins, has led to increased prevention and control efforts since 2010. Successful management of invasive species requires methods to contain future spread, reduce population levels, and minimize their effects. In collaboration with partners, USGS scientists have developed and continue to test containment and control tools and technologies, and investigate options for combined implementation of tools using an integrated adaptive management approach. Working in tandem with the Asian Carp Regional Coordinating Committee and other organizations, an Asian carp control toolbox is being developed to enhance the ability of agencies to manage and control Asian carp to minimize their effects and spread.

ALLOCATION of housing to the local housing pool was a key debate in Legislative Assembly on Thursday. MLA Roger Spink insisted to the Chair of the Housing Committee that it was for his Committee, to “come forward with proposals on allocations, to the MLAs.”
He said: “We voted money for a large number of new houses, and they have not been allocating new houses to the local pool. And that is up to the Housing Committee who should be coming back to members with their proposals.”
He questioned MLA Elsby about whether the committee had met and if yes, what work had been undertaken.
