Dauphin - Swan River - Neepawa M-P Dan Mazier has submitted an access to information request to the federal government, asking how much money has been spent on a containment curtain that was installed in Clear Lake this summer.

The curtain was ripped by heavy winds and high waves just two days after it was installed in an attempt to contain Zebra Mussels found in the lake. 

Mazier also wants to know what the plan is moving forward, adding Parks Canada and Federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault need to be held accountable for the failed plan.

He adds it is very frustrating to see taxpayers' dollars footing the bill for the mismanagement of the situation.

CKDM News now has reached out to Mazier's office for further comment.
