SAWYER COUNTY: Osprey Lake Eurasian Water Milfoil Treatment
Saywer County in partnership with Osprey Lake Association is sponsoring a two-year project on Osprey Lake to chemically treat 8-10 acres (<5% of the littoral area and in existence for <5 years) of Eurasian watermilfoil. The deliverable for this project is an annual report that summarizes volunteer monitoring results, herbicide treatment details, and any other control activities.
Project methods require:
1. Treatment to occur in May before native plants are established.
2. Volunteer monitoring at least twice a year to record EWM presence/absence, approximate size of EWM beds, and presence of other plants.
Special Conditions
1. Data, records, and reports, including GIS-based maps and digital images, must be submitted to the Department in a format specified by the regional Lake Coordinator.
2. In-kind or volunteer services must be documented as match for reimbursement.
3. Treatment must be in compliance with the Department issued Aquatic Plant Management Permit.
