Reports and Documents
The summer harvesting season of 2015 was a continuation in the Hydraulic Conveyor System’s (HCS) program development, building upon the strong operational base established in the initial summer of HCS operation in 2009. Continued refinement of operational protocols has taken place over its years of operation, but the overall goal of the HCS continues to be for the purposes that it was designed for; removing new, previously undiscovered points of infestation of EWM. It is by removing these newly discovered infestation sites that the goal of stopping or greatly reducing the spread of EWM before it becomes established may be realized.
The following quarterly report documents the major activities that were undertaken during the second quarter of the Tomahawk Lake AIS Control Grant for 2015. Subsequent quarterly reports will be forwarded as they are generated per the grant agreement.
