The International Joint Commission kicks off a series of meetings tonight in Fort Frances to discuss the future management of the Lake of the Woods and Rainy Lake basins.
Nick Heisler, a senior advisor, says they want the public to provide input on recommendations made by a task force.
"These include a summit to be convened by the International Joint Commission to encourage the development of a water shed vision to look at common goals and objectives," says Heisler. "The second recommendation is to combine the two existing IJC boards, the Water Control Board and Pollution Control Board, into a single international water shed board."
The meeting takes place at the La Place Rendez-Vous beginning at 7 p.m.
