Abstract

The International Joint Commission (IJC) is an independent agency that guides Canada and the United States on how to settle disputes involving their 13 transboundary river basins. The IJC’s river basin management methods can be evaluated by using 10 principles, and its techniques can be modelled by other international transboundary water organisations. The 2012 Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement serves as a case study that demonstrates how the IJC responds to situations in an immense and historically disputed basin.
