Former Great Lakes chief Patty Birkholz: 'No silver bullet' for Asian carp after invader's DNA found in Kalamazoo River | MLive.com:

SAUGATUCK TOWNSHIP, MI – As the former director of the state Office of the Great Lakes and a long-time legislator who worked to protect the environment, Patty Birkholz said that finding DNA of Asian carp in the Kalamazoo River is a clear warning that trouble could follow.

The state Department of Natural Resources said Tuesday, Oct. 7, that one of 400 water samples taken this summer near Allegan showed environmental DNA of silver carp, a strain of Asian carp. 

The eDNA could be scales, tissue, excrement or mucous of the fish, possibly brought here inadvertently on a boat or fishing gear.

Birkholz said that the spread of Asian carp from the Mississippi River watershed has concerned state and federal officials for years, costing millions of dollars. 

If the fish reached the Great Lakes, it could devastate the $7 billion fishery.
