New Board In Place

A new International advisory board for the Rainy Lake and Lake of the Woods watersheds is now in place.

It consolidates two existing boards and was a key recommendation of an task force that identified ways of improving water quality in the basin.

The new board is comprised of 20 members, representing interests and governments in both Canada and the U.S., and will report to governments on water quality objectives in the boundary waters.
