Invasive carp pose a threat to the ecology, economy, and natural resources of Minnesota. This proposal will include design, installation, and assessment of invasive carp deterrent and removal technologies at Lock and Dam 5 (LD5) on the Mississippi River and test new methods to support and enhance effectiveness of a lock deterrent. This LD5 invasive carp prevention and management program will be further developed in collaboration with partners, including the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), and U.S.
