Lakes Planning Report

The Lake Marinuka Protection and Rehabilitation District (PRD) proposes to study the past history, present health and future impacts upon Lake Marinuka with the help sixth-grade students at Galesville Elementary School, working in conjunction with the UW - Stevens Point's Adopt-A-Lake program. Project activities would include: 1) Annual lakebed contour mapping to measure sediment deposition patterns, 2) aquatic plant mapping, 3) water quality monitoring and, 4) development of a written lake history. The Department of Natural Resources will be provided with both a paper copy and an electronic copy of a final report on the project. Project results will be disseminated to the public through the Galesville-Ettrick-Trempealeau Schools and through the Galesville Public Library.
