Lakes Planning Report

Price County proposes to 1) develop a list of parameters that will be applied to county lakes to produce a priority list of potentially impacted lakes; 2) conduct a survey of shoreland property owners and other lake users; 3) conduct an active information education program to keep citizens, local officials, etc. informed of the project; and 4) develop a model to incorporate environmental and sociological criteria into a planning model to evaluate different management options. These activities will result in a lake screening process, a lake priority list, a survey of water resources stakeholders, and a water resource value model. The Department of Natural Resources will be provided with a paper copy and an electronic copy of the final report. Information about the project will be disseminated to the public by public meeting, newspaper articles, newsletter mailing, and report mailing. end.
