Quagga mussels damage Glen Canyon Dam water flow

More from this show

We’ll take a look at the intense efforts to keep an invasive mussel from spreading beyond Lake Powell. Quagga mussels damage the Glen Canyon Dam water flow, undercut the ecosystem and cling to boat engines. They also cost millions to contain. This story is part of Elemental, covering sustainability, a collaboration between public TV and radio stations.
