Fish meeting tomorrow at Marriott (Asian carp)

Here are the details:

The International Joint Commission, in cooperation with the participating agencies listed below, is hosting a public meeting in Ypsilanti, Mich., on Feb. 17 to discuss plans and get recommendations on Asian carp control efforts. This will be the second public meeting in the Great Lakes region.

Who’s going to be there?

Senior representatives from
International Joint Commission;
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency;
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service;
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers;
U.S. Coast Guard;
Great Lakes states, provinces, municipalities and tribes (invited);
White House Council on Environmental Quality; and
Scientific experts

When is it?

Where is it?

Marriott Ann Arbor Ypsilanti at Eagle Crest

Side note: I know the Marriott changed its name a while ago, but can anyone tell me why Ann Arbor is in the name? It’s clearly in Ypsilanti. Marketing? PR? Just curious.
