Project Detail

LAKE HURON ASSN: HLK - Huron Lake Healthy Lakes Projects

Purpose

Partnering with property owners, the Huron Lake Association is sponsoring a grant to implement best practices from Wisconsin\2019s Healthy Lakes Implementation Plan. Best practices, including native plantings, diversions, rock infiltration, and/or rain gardens, will be designed and installed according to the Healthy Lakes fact sheets, technical guidance and grant application. All funded best practices require contracts that must remain in place for 10 years and include the minimum operation and maintenance requirements described in grant condition #24 of this agreement. If the landowner is the grant sponsor this Lake Protection Grant Agreement serves as the contract. If the best practice(s) will be implemented on land other than the sponsor\2019s, a Conservation Contract between the sponsor and landowner describing the 10-year contract period, minimum operation and maintenance details, and data to be collected is required. The Department may perform site inspections and/or monitoring to ensure project success. Deliverables include: Signed 10-year landowner Conservation Contract(s) with operation and maintenance requirements; data collected; pre and post project installation photographs; and summary of education activities and publicity/promotion of Healthy Lakes initiative, if applicable. Special conditions: The state share of each best practice cannot exceed $1,000. Project management and technical assistance costs cannot exceed 10% of the state share of the grant award; this does not include implementation labor. Water regulation and/or county zoning permits must be issued before construction, and all regulatory requirements apply. Funding cannot be used for mitigation or regulatory compliance activities. The Healthy Lakes logo should be used for promotion and publicity and DNR recognized as a funding source. This scope summarizes the scope in the grant application and attachments and does not supersede those application tasks/deliverables.
