International Upper Great Lakes Study Progress Report

In 2007, the International Joint Commission launched a five-year study to look at future water levels in the upper Great Lakes and the options for regulating those levels to support the region’s economic and environmental interests. In the entire upper lakes basin, water levels are currently influenced through a regulation plan at the St. Marys River control structures at Sault Ste. Marie, where Lake Superior outflows have been regulated since 1914.
