PIPE & N PIPE LAKE P&R DISTRICT: LMI-Pipe Lakes Action Plan Implementation

Pipe and North Pipe Lakes P&R District will implement recommendations described in the Pipe Lakes Action Plan. Activities include: 1) repair/replace problem culverts and remediate erosion on intermittent tributaries; 2) design/build detention basins in subwatershed contributing the most pollution; 3) restore shorelines, integrating woody habitat; 4) implement residential diversion/infiltration BMPs (e.g. berms, rain gardens, rain barrels); 5) complete whole-lake, point-intercept aquatic plant surveys on both lakes; 6) monitor tributary and lake water quality and quantity; 7) information and education.

Shoreline restoration parcels require a Department approved restrictive covenant that permanently establishes a vegetative buffer. Restorations will follow standards iin NR 191.24(3) unless mutually agreed to in writing with the regional lake coordinator before implementation. Storm water BMPs will include maintenance and operation plans specified in a ten-year contract for each BMP site. The Department may perform site inspection and/or monitoring.
