SUMMARY:Exploring the Idea of a Mississippi River Compact (LWV Upper Mississippi River Region)
DESCRIPTION:The idea or a Mississippi River Compact has been rumbling up and down the river for years without getting a real toe-hold. A Mississippi River Compact would be a legal agreement between all ten mainstem Mississippi River states and the Federal Government. If enacted\, a Compact could provide a forum for management over the entire watershed comprehensively using the sovereign powers of both state and federal governments. Is it time now for a Mississippi River Compact?\nIn this webinar\, we will hear from John Stack\, JD\, author of an Note in the Minnesota Law Review examining the feasibility of a Mississippi River Compact; Mayor David Kleis of St. Cloud and Minnesota Senator John Hoffman. We will learn about the legal basis for a potential compact and the recent call by a group of Mayors along the River for a compact. Finally\, we will look at the political situation and what it would take\, at least in one state\, to establish such a Compact.\nThis is a webinar; advance registration is required.
