Project Detail

COUNTY OF KEWAUNEE: Kewaunee County Red River Park AIS Rapid Response Project

Purpose

Kewaunee County proposes to manage Phragmites in the Red River Park, located on the Bay of Green Bay, by implementing control and prevention measures during the period 2008-2011. The project elements and deliverables are specified in their AIS Control grant application dated 7.1.08. The project includes conducting pre- and post-treatment surveys and mapping the extent of Phragmites; controlling Phragmites with aquatic herbicide treatments and through followup mechanical treatment. Prescribed fire will be employed the following years along with chemical spot treatments. The public will be kept informed of the project through signage, local newspapers, and mailings. The DNR will be proviced with a copy of the mailings. If a consultant is to provide the final report, it is recommended the Grantee provide the DNR AIS Coordinator with a draft for comment on report adequacy prior to making the final payment to the consultant.
