PLEASANT LAKE IMPROVEMENT CORPORATION: Pleasant Lake EWM Treatment and Monitoring Project

The Pleasant Lake Management District proposes to control Eurasian Water-Milfoil (EWM) by implementing control measures during the period 2008-2009. The project elements and deliverables are specified in the District's AIS Control Grant application dated 5.5.08. The project includes conducting pre- and post-treatment surveys and monitoring and mapping the extent of EWM; controlling EWM with aquatic herbicide treatments; implementing an AIS prevention strategy that includes developing an awareness and hand harvesting clinic, and conducting watercraft inspections. A progress report and final report summarizing thhe two-year project will be provided to DNR. Watercraft inspection records will be entered into the State's online Watercraft Inspection Database.

If a consultant is to provide the final report, it is recommended that the grantee provide the DNR AIS Coordinator with a draft for comment on report adequacy prior to making final payment to the consultant. DNR will be provided both paper and electronic .pdf copies of the final report along with, or prior to, submission of grantee's final payment request.
