CITY OF STEVENS POINT: McDill Pond Lake Management Planning - Phase 2

Based on recommendations from Phase 1 of the McDill Pond planning activities, the City of Stevens Point will address sediment loading needs by determining existing accumulation rates, projecting future rates and identifying remedial actions. A fisheries management plan and a public participation program will also be undertaken. Project activities include: 1) sediment core sampling in the Plover River and McDill Pond 2) investigation of upstream erosion 3) model sediments entering McDill Pond by quantifying river hydraulics, sediment loading patterns and projecting future sediment loading 4) evaluate the feasibility of dredging 5) develop a fisheries management plan 6) disseminate the information regarding these activities and resulting recommendations to the public by newsletter, local newspaper articles and public meetings. Project results will be reposited Portage County Public Library, City Hall and City of Stevens Point
