Description
A Reference to examine the potential pollution of transboundary waters by Garrison Diversion Unit, in North Dakota.
Outcome

The IJC recommended that portions of the Garrison Diversion Unit, which could affect waters flowing into Canada, should not be built at that time, and construction should only be undertaken when governments agree that either risks of biota are eliminated or are no longer a matter of concern.
