Mussel threat prompts lawmakers over zebra mussels
Washington lawmakers led by Senator John Glenn and Representative Henry Nowak proposed bills to spend 46 million to curb zebra mussels. The invasive 1% inch shellfish threaten Great Lakes water supplies, fisheries, and power plants, risking 5 billion in damage across the region by century’s end. The plan would fund prevention and eradication at four million annually for five years.
