Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland and that state's attorney general, Richard Cordray, called Wednesday for immediate construction of a physical barrier in the Calumet River in Illinois to fight the threat of Asian carp entering the Great Lakes. The two Democrats asked President Barack Obama's administration to host an emergency summit by July 19 to develop a strategy and timetable to build a barrier in the river between Lake Calumet and Lake Michigan.
