TILLEDA POND REHAB DIST: Tillada Pond Eurasian Milfoil Rapid Response

Tilleda Pond Protection and Rehabilitation District proposes to control Eurasian Watermilfoil in Tilleda Pond by implementing control measures during the period 2012-2014. The project elements and deliverables are specified in the TPPRD\2019s Aquatic Invasive Species Control Grant application, dated July 2, 2012.

The project includes conducting two Point Intercept surveys by a third party consultant using the DNR Aquatic Plant Treatment Evaluation Protocol http://www4.uwsp.edu/cnr/uwexlakes/ecology/APM/Appendix-D.pdf ; controlling Eurasian Watermilfoil with aquatic herbicide treatments and a drawdown; and implementing an aquatic invasive species prevention and control strategy that includes attending the WI Lakes Convention, advertising in rural newspapers to solicit in-kind volunteers, rusty crayfish trapping, Eurasian Watermilfoil hand pulling, and zebra mussel/spiny water flea tows. Annual progress reports and a final report summarizing the two-year project will be provided to DNR. Any publications produced as part of the project will incorporate the \201CStop Aquatic Hitchhikers!\201D\2122 brand (partnership details can be found at http://www.protectyourwaters.org).

If consultant is to provide the final report, it is recommended that the Grantee provide the DNR Aquatic Invasive Species 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. All information associated with this project is subject to public record.
