IJC - International Joint Commission
Environmental ServicesOntario, Canada51-200 Employees
The International Joint Commission is an environmental services organization established to prevent and resolve disputes between the United States and Canada under the 1909 Boundary Waters Treaty. Based in Ottawa, Ontario, it acts as an independent and objective adviser to both governments, focusing on projects that affect boundary or transboundary waters and may regulate their operation. The commission supports the protection of the transboundary environment, participates in implementing the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement, and seeks to improve transboundary air quality while identifying emerging boundary issues that could lead to bilateral disputes. Its work is rooted in facilitating cooperative management of shared water resources and environmental quality for the two nations, serving as a bridge between policy and practical oversight. Recent developments include the formation of an IJC study board in early 2024 to advance its March 8 reference, reflecting ongoing initiatives to address key boundary water issues. }
