MUSSER LAKE ASSOCIATION: Musser Lake Detection Invasives Control Project
The Musser Lake Property Owners Association in will conduct an early season herbicide treatment on ~ 25 acres of Curly Leaf Pondweed (CLP). CLP was discovered in 2004. Through Price County the association received a rapid response grant in 2005 and treated in 2005, 2006 and 2007 with good success. The association is currently planning to develop APM plan by applying for a future AIS grant.
The project includes the following goals: 1) An early season herbicide treatment on ~ 25 acres of CLP in Musser Lake to control the spread; 2) Monitor the CLP throughout the year to determine success of the herbicide treatment and to continue the mapping of CLP; 3) Prevent the spread of CLP to downstream water bodies.
