USFWS to remove invasive carp from Lake Mattamuskeet - The Coastland Times
Summary by Ground News
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has partnered with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission to get rid of the carp. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law investment will improve the natural environment of the 40,000-acre Lake Mattamuskeet and four outlet canals. During a similar large-scale carp removal effort in the 1940s and 1950s, large haul seines and baited traps were used successfully.
