Mohawk Tribe threatens suit over river ice breaker


The St. Regis Mohawk Tribe is threatening a lawsuit to stop an ice breaker on the St. Lawrence River.

Tribal officials say the ice breaker causes environmental problems and shoreline damage. They are seeking a delay in the start of the shipping season.

St. Lawrence Seaway Corporation sends the ice breaker out on the river to clear the way for shipping vessels.
