State administrators are voicing fear that the Missouri river pact will hurt St. Louis water commerce. Stacy Covitz has the story from Jefferson City.
The state has refused to sign onto a new pact determining how water in the Missouri River will be used by the states that share it.
Missouri Natural Resources Department director Stephen Mahfood says the state has many concerns about the pact, such as water flow into the Mississippi River.
Mahfood says Missouri won't join the river pact unless this issue is addressed. From the state capitol, I'm Stacy Covitz.
