Mike,
In my experience, low DA links often come from automated websites that are created solely for the purpose of ranking for longtail keyword traffic. Most of these types of sites often times don't have proper contact information so that you can get the links removed. I'm of of the opinion that you are better of investing your time in acquiring high quality (High DA) links from other credible sources. Enough of these links will offset these low DA links that you are concerned about.

Mike, your question is not clear!
Are you trying to ask whom you should contact if you want to remove incoming links from Lower DA?
If this is the question, then I would really answer this in two steps!
Step 1:
Why do you want to remove links from lower DA? If you think that lower DA means lower quality then this concept is highly inappropriate! A website with Higher DA can be a lower quality websites if you really want to remove low quality websites from your link profile then you should audit the website who is linking to you to see if it really a low quality website.
You can check the design, UI, UX, Link profile, onpage SEO, search their brand name in Google to see if they are ranking 1<sup>st</sup> for their brand name and similar tactics...
Step 2:
If you really think that the website is low quality so in that case you have to find the contact email of the website and email them to request a link removal.
**I am hoping that this is something you are trying to ask if there is something else please explain the question in detail and I would be happy to answer you!

Reversing Canonical URLs?
A few months back, we set up canonical URLs on some pages with duplicate content to give some newer pages more link juice. Now, we need to do the opposite and give that same juice to some of the original pages. If we set up canonical URLs on the newer pages to point back to the original pages, are we losing the juice we've been building all along? Sorry for all this convoluted juice talk. Hopefully, my point is getting across here.

Link from or 301 Domains?
I have 3 domains that are in the same niche as my main site and not connected in any way. Now my question is should I just link to my main site from each of them on a page that is relevant to my main Keywords or should I 301 them to the site? I am thinking that building a link to my main site would have more effect than 301's. Thanks in advance!
