Project Detail

TRI-LAKES ASSN.: Tri Lakes Prevention & Control Project

Purpose

The Tri Lakes Assn proposes to control Eurasian Water-Milfoil (EWM) and Curly Leaf Pondweed (CLP) in Krohn's, East Alaska and West Alaska Lakes by implementing control measures during the period 2008. The project elements and deliverables are specified in the Tri Lake Assn's AIS Control Grant application dated January 10, 2008. The project includes conducting pre- and post-treatment surveys and monitoring, and mapping the extent of EWM and CLP; controlling EWM and CLP with aquatic herbicide treatments; implementing an AIS prevention strategy that includes developing an awareness & an education program, and conducting watercraft inspection. A final report summarizing the one-year project will be provided to DNR. Watercraft inspection records will be entered into the State's online Watercraft Inspection Database. If a consultant is to provide the final report, it is recommended that the grantee provide the DNR AIS Coordinator with a draft for comment on report adequacy prior to making final payment to the consultant. DNR will be provided both paper and electronic .pdf copies of the final report along with, or prior to, submission of grantee's final payment request.

Bonestroo, Inc (formerly Northern Environmental) was contacted by the Association to provide a chemical herbicide treatment and survey of these AIS. Bonestroo furnished all labor, materials, tools and equipment necessary to perform all operations in connection with the chemical application of herbicides in select locations of the Tri-Lakes.
