TOWN OF NAMAKAGON: Aquatic Invasive Species Prevention & I&E Project

The Town of Namakagon proposes to conduct a Eurasian Milfoil Inspection and Monitoring Project and an Exotics Prevention Education Program on Namakagon Lake in Bayfield County. This project will involve inspections of the water area in the vicinity of eight boat landing sites for the presence of the exotic aquatic plant, Eurasian watermilfoil (EWM). These inspections will be conducted in May, July, September, and November of 2004.

The Town, in cooperation with the Namakagon Lake Assoc., will publish and send a newsletter to approximately 350 lake assoc. members including information on the boat landing inspections and the I&E efforts in June, August, and October, 2004.
