SAWYER COUNTY: Aquatic Invasive Species Control

Sawyer County in partnership with Courtes Oreilles Lake Association in partnership is sponsoring a three-year project on Musky Bay to chemically treat 1-2 acres (<5 acres of the littoral area and in existence <5 years) of Curlyleaf pondweed. 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 before water temperature exceeds 60F.

2. Monitoring at least twice a year (pre- and post-treatment) to record CLP presence/absence, approximate size of CLP beds, and presence of other plants.
