Return to Search

Purpose

WCLPRD is sponsoring a project to develop a Comprehensive Management Plan in the time span of Feb. 2017 \2013 Dec. 2019. The project elements and deliverables are specified in the WCLPRD Grant application dated Dec. 10, 2016. Project final deliverables include: 1)Watershed and Water Quality Analysis: Using WISCALM and WiLMS (below), water quality data will evaluated for potential issues of nutrient loadings and excessive algae growth. The current and long-term trophic state will be determined. An evaluation of the WCL Watershed will be completed using data from the SWAT Model for the Upper Fox & Wolf River Watershed TMDL. SWAT results will provide external phosphorus (P) loading and a lake P budget will estimate in-lake P sources. P reduction targets will be generated for the watershed & in-lake sources. 2) Shoreline Course Woody Habitat Assessment, using DNR protocol (Brenda Nordin will provide) 3) Aquatic Plant Community Assessment- #3 below 4) Socioeconomic Survey, using DNR protocol- #4 below 5) Kickoff, second, and final meeting Specific project activities include: 1) Water quality using WisCALM comparisons http://dnr.wi.gov/topic/surfacewater/assessments.html 2) Groundwater modeling using GFlow Model 3) Conduct Point Intercept survey consistent with DNR Protocol http://www.uwsp.edu/cnr-ap/UWEXLakes/Documents/ecology/Aquatic%20Plants/PI-Protocol-2010.pdf 30 4) Completion of WDNR-approved survey using DNR protocol http://intranet.dnr.state.wi.us/int/es/science/socialmanual.htm 5) Shoreline and course Woody Habitat Assessment per DNR protocol. 6) Project will produce a comprehensive management plan compliant with NR 191.45 https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/code/admin_code/nr/100/191/V/45 Special Conditions: 1) CLMN efforts should not be duplicated and these data shall be included in the trends analysis and final reporting; 2) All CLMN shall be entered into the SWIMS database.
