       This announcement just out this week, on
  HTML https://www.canals.ny.gov/news/pressrel/index.html
       It's a new collaborative effort between the NYS Canal Authority
       and the NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation (once again)  to
       rid the NYS Erie Canal System of yet another invasive species,
       that is threatening it's sustainability. This one is discussed
       in the NYS Press Release below.

       The first invasive species collaboration, between the NYSCC and
       the NYSDEC, is reviewed here:

       Invasive Plants & Trees are still the issue with Erie Canal
       Embankments. That issue brought about the new Canal Embankment
       Integrity Effort. Many trees and other plants that growing along
       miles of high-hazard canal embankments fall into this category
       of "prohibited invasive species"

       And now the LATEST problem with invasive specie issues is found
       inside the embankments, in the water of the Erie Canal, it's the
       Round Goby fish. You can read more about it here and follow the
       links to see what other animals make the NYS Invasive Animal
       List

       And these Round Goby are already inside the Erie Canal Waterway
       System, according to this Invasive Species website that monitors
       these issues. This website had a great map showing where active
       issues are or invasive fish.
