    Eurasian watermilfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum) is an attractive plant with feathery underwater foliage. It was once commonly sold as an aquarium plant. Eurasian watermilfoil, hereafter called milfoil, originates from Europe and Asia, but was introduced to North America many years ago and is now found over much of the United States. This plant was introduced to the eastern United States at least as long ago as the 1940s, but it may have arrived as early as the late 1800s. It is very apparent that milfoil has been spread from lake to lake on boat trailers.
    1972 Bighead carp were first imported into the United States in 1972 by a private fish farmer in Arkansas who wanted to use them in combination with other phytophagous fishes to improve water quality and increase fish production in culture ponds. In 1974 the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission and Auburn University, Alabama, obtained stock to assess their potential benefits and impacts (Jennings 1988). The species first began to appear in open waters, the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, in the early 1980s, likely as a result of escapes from aquaculture facilities
    Zebra mussels.1996. A release of larval mussels during the ballast exchange of a single commercial cargo ship traveling from the north shore of the Black Sea to the Great Lakes has been deduced as the likely vector of introduction to North America (McMahon 1996).
    And Now is the time we have tons of money to shut down a lock and dam what a bunch of [censored]. You just can not fix STUPID. my two cents. There is no water problem in California that was not created by the government. And now let it begin in Minnesota.

    I think it was 1990 when I first heard of zebras in Pepin. Is the barn door closed yet. But now I guess we have tons of cash to eradicate them
