An estimate of design costs of sand and silt traps and the means to maintain them. 4. An estimate of costs of the initial restoration of the lake bed and the construction of the sand and silt traps. 5. An estimate of maintenance costs and future restoration costs. 6. An analysis of financial assistance programs that may be available to support planned restoration activities. 7. An update of the contour map of the lake. Prepare a final report summarizing the results of the above tasks. Disseminate information on the project results to the public by newsletter, fact sheet distribution, entire report mailing, public meeting, summary report mailing, newpaper article, tv/radio spots, and poster display.
