immediately report the incident to the
Incidental Take Program Supervisor,
Permits and Conservation Division,
Office of Protected Resources, at 301–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 1.
Background: USACE conducted
GLMRIS in consultation with other
federal agencies, Native American
tribes, state agencies, local governments
and non-governmental organizations.
The GLMRIS authority directed USACE
to identify the range of options and
technologies available to prevent the
spread of ANS between the Great Lakes
and Mississippi River basins through
the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal
and other aquatic pathways. In GLMRIS,
USACE has identified thirteen ANS of
Concern established in one basin with
the risk for transfer to the other,
analyzed and evaluated available ANS

controls, and formulated alternatives
specifically for the Chicago Area
Waterway System (CAWS) with the goal
of preventing ANS transfer between the
two basins.
2. The GLMRIS Report: The GLMRIS
Report identifies eight potential
alternatives—from continuing current
efforts to complete separation of the
watersheds, and evaluates the potential
of these alternatives to control the interbasin spread of thirteen ANS, which
include fish (such as Asian carp), algae,
crustaceans, plants and viruses. The
report also identifies potential
significant adverse impacts that
alternatives may have on existing uses
and users of the waterways, such as
flood risk management, navigation, and
water quality, and identifies mitigation
measures that could be implemented to
minimize these impacts.
Authority: This action is being undertaken
pursuant to the Water Resources and
Development Act of 2007, Section 3061, Pub.
L. 110–114, and Section 1538 of Public Law
112–141 of the Moving Ahead for Progress in
the 21st Century Act.
