The final appendices from the APM Plan for Fox Lake.

First appendix from the APM Plan from Fox Lake.

Fox Lake is a 2,625-acre lake located within the municipal boundaries of the Town of Fox Lake and City of Fox Lake. Fox Lake is a natural glacial drainage lake that was enlarged in 1845 by the construction of a dam on the lake outlet named Mill Creek. Fox Lake has a history of alternating between clear water and turbid water states. Currently, Fox Lake is in a clear water state and contains abundant macrophyte growth. Evidence also suggests the fishery is improving relative to recent years. Both the improved water clarity and condition of the fishery are attributed to the macrophyte growth; however, the abundant plant growth is also causing navigation problems in the lake.

This large scale grant is to create a long-term APM plan for Fox Lake. The plan will require an educational component, and consider all the plant management options in the context of their financial, social and technical feasibility for protecting the public trust.
