Sea Lamprey Management Program

The Sea Lamprey Management Program was established to manage sea lamprey abundance in the Great Lakes, thus allowing for restoration of the Great Lakes' fishery. Since the Great Lakes form a portion of the international boundary between the United States and Canada, the Great Lakes Fishery Commission was created in part to develop and implement measures to control sea lampreys. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service along with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada serve as agents of the Great Lakes Fishery Commission according to the Convention on Great Lake Fisheries and the Commission's Strategic Vision and also work in cooperation with various federal, provincial, state and tribal agencies in maintaining sea lamprey abundance at or below acceptable levels.
