DANE COUNTY: Dev. of Mgmt. Plan for Monona Bay

Purpose

The students will compile information about the bay, including watershed, historic and present water quality data, aquatic plant data, determine water sources and flushing rate, recommend management options for aquatic plants and shoreline habitat, and design a public outreach program. After the final report is complete and the grant is finished, it will be used to develop a Comprehensive Watershed Plan for Monona Bay to prioritize and guide decision-making for future management of the Bay. Deliverables: See the grant application. DNR Lakes staff will have input to a draft report prior to publication of the final. An electronic copy of the final report in .pdf file format and all raw data in will be submitted along with one hard copy.
