A project of: Deer Lake Conservancy, Burnett County Land and Water Conservation Department, and Harmony Environmental

install storm water best management practices to control direct drainage runoff. Specifically, the Conservancy will: 1) implement individual waterfront lot infiltration practices (rain gutters with drain tiles, infiltration pits, or rain gardens) on approximately 20 riparian lots; 2) design/build restoration of approximately 4 eroded gullies; 3) provide technical and financial assistance for traditional shoreline buffer restoration; 4) establish demonstration sites with open houses/tours of restoration/infiltration sites

Special conditions: 1) Gully project design plans need approval before project begins; 2) applicable water regulation permits must be issued before construction activities commence; and 3) focus group script must be reviewed by statewide sociologist well in advance of first session.
