FDL LONG LAKE PRESERVATION ASSN: FDL Long Lake AIS Monitoring & Control

Purpose

FDL Long Lake Association proposes to continue to monitor and control aquatic invasive species (AIS) on a lake-wide basis in Long Lake through 2018. The project will include: qualitative evaluations where the entire littoral zone of Long Lake would be searched for AIS, quantitative evaluations before and after treatments, chemical treatment of AIS, two years of volunteer-based herbicide concentration monitoring, professional hand-harvesting of AIS, assessment of mechanical harvesting operation, acoustic survey, whole-lake point-intercept survey, stakeholders survey, 200 hours per year of Clean Boats/Clean Waters monitoring, public and committee meetings, annual AIS monitoring and control strategy assessment reports, and development of an updated aquatic plant management plan which will include a harvesting plan. Long Lake will submit a final report summarizing the project to the Department. The project elements and deliverables will be completed as described in the project proposal submitted to the Department and dated January 28, 2015.

Reports and Documents
The LLPA completed a WDNR-approved Long Lake Comprehensive Management Plan (March 2015) in which 42 native aquatic plant species were identified from the lake and adjacent shoreline areas. Six exotic (non-native) plant species are known to exist in Long Lake including two submergent species, curly-leaf pondweed (CLP) and Eurasian watermilfoil (EWM).
Appendices A thru E
The LLPA completed an update of their management plan in 2015 (Long Lake Comprehensive Management Plan, Onterra, March 2015). The update plan created new thresholds and triggers for the continued control of CLP and EWM within Long Lake.
