CITY OF EAU CLAIRE: City Of Eau Claire

Purpose: Project aims to control curly-leaf pondweed, monitor submersed macrophyte biomass, and monitor success of alum treatments at controlling phosphorus release from sediments.

Activities: 1. application of endothall 2. monitorCLP turion frequency in April (before treatment), June (peak biomass period) and August (new germination). 3. Monitor and quantify native submersed macrophyte biomass response in June and August 4. Examine sediment samples for determining effectiveness of alum treatmens at sequestering iron-bound phosphorus to reduce internal phosphorus loading. 5. Monitor water quality parameters for determining effectiveness of alum treatments at maintaining water clarity.

Deliverables: all data collected, all outreach and event materials, agendas and minutes from meetings. Specifically: yearly update to interim report "Limnological Analysis of Half Moon Lake" . Special Conditions: WDNR Lakes Management Coordinator will be provided with an electronic (pdf or word) copy of all data and maps from the project. This scope summarizes the projet detail provided in the application and does not negate tasks/deliverables described therein. Data, records and reports, including GIS-based maps and digital images, must be submitted to the DNR in a fromat specified by the regional Lakes Coordinator.
