$47 million new projects for Asian carp fight

Federal and state agencies announced $47 million worth of new projects Thursday to combat Asian carp and prevent their spread to the Great Lakes. The 13 projects include a new laboratory in Wisconsin that will do increased DNA sampling for Asian carp around the lakes, aiming to take 120 samples per week. Scientists also will try to find genetic markers in the fish that can be used to help determine where they are.
