Lake Champlain needs a dedicated conservation commission
Vermont should form a Lake Champlain Commission patterned after California’s Bay Commission. The group would study the lake, prevent fill and pollution, involve federal and state agencies and local cities, and operate for about two years before handing controls to INCOCHAMP. If not created, filling will continue.
