House Resolution No. urges the Governor of Michigan to take necessary actions to support and expedite the Brandon Road Interbasin Project, which aims to prevent the spread of invasive carp into the Great Lakes. This project, led by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is crucial for protecting the economic and environmental health of the Great Lakes, which contribute over $20 billion to Michigan's economy. The resolution highlights the recent transfer of project management to the Detroit District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, reflecting the Trump Administration's confidence in Michigan's ability to effectively partner in this initiative.

The resolution calls for the Governor to direct relevant state departments, particularly the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, to prioritize and facilitate the project's advancement. It emphasizes the importance of timely coordination and action to avoid further delays that could jeopardize the project's success and increase the risk of invasive species entering the Great Lakes. Additionally, the resolution requests that the Governor recommend any necessary actions to the House of Representatives to ensure the project's effective implementation in collaboration with the federal administration. Copies of the resolution will be sent to key stakeholders, including the Governor and relevant department directors.
