TITLE II--MORATORIUM ON EXPORTS OF BULK FRESH WATER

SEC. 201. FINDINGS.

The Congress finds that--
(1) the waters and water-dependent natural resources of the
Great Lakes Basin are precious public resources, held in trust
by the Great Lakes States and the Canadian provinces of Ontario
and Quebec;
(2) authority over the Great Lakes is vested in the
Governors of the Great Lakes States by the Water Resources
Development Act of 1986;
(3) the Great Lakes Charter of 1985 is a voluntary
international agreement that provides the procedural framework
for notice and consultation by the Great Lakes States and the
Canadian provinces concerning the withdrawal of water from the
Great Lakes Basin;
(4) the Governors of the Great Lakes States, in exercise of
their authority under the Water Resources Development Act of
1986, and the premiers of the Canadian provinces have based
decisions on proposals to withdraw, divert, or use waters from
the Great Lakes Basin on the extent to which such proposals
conserve and protect waters and water-dependent resources of
the Great Lakes Basin;
(5) decisionmaking must remain vested in the Governors of
the Great Lakes States and the premiers of the Canadian
provinces, who currently manage the Great Lakes Basin on a day-
to-day basis;
(6) demand for clean and fresh water is growing around the
world and bulk exports pose a unique challenge to the
management of the Great Lakes; and
(7) the ecological effects of bulk exports of water from
the Great Lakes are unknown.

that provides for a common conservation standard to make
decisions concerning the withdrawal and use of water from the
Great Lakes Basin.

SEC. 203. DEFINITIONS.

As used in this title--
(1) the term ''bulk fresh water'' means fresh water
extracted in amounts intended for transportation by tanker or
similar form of mass transportation, without further
processing;
(2) the term ''Great Lakes Basin'' means the water within
Lakes Erie, Huron, Michigan, Ontario, St. Clair, and Superior,

lakes; and
(3) the term ''Great Lakes State'' means each of the States
of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio,
