Lake Minocqua Critical Habitat Designation

This survey was conducted on July 14 and 15, 2003 using the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources protocol guidelines for conducting and implementing sensitive area surveys. Surveys of this type are an integrated team approach to resource management, utilizing the expertise of many DNR resource managers. As a team, resource experts collaborate to identify locations around a lake that are critical to the future health and balance of the lake's ecosystem. Sensitive area surveys provide lake organizations, owners of shoreline property, county zoning officials, DNR personnel and other interested individuals with specific management recommendations that can be used to help protect and improve the overall health of lakes.

Fifteen sites identified on Minocqua Lake contain critical habitat and were designated as sensitive areas (refer to Appendix A for site location). Natural resource managers identified these areas and recommend the need for additional protection in the future.
