CHICAGO — A wire mesh fence is now up between the Des Plaines River and a shipping canal in an effort to keep the invasive Asian carp out of the river in the event of flooding. 

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, environmental agencies and lawmakers marked the completion of the 13-mile-long barrier on Friday.
