ELKHART LAKE IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION: Elkhart Lake Surface water Flow Monitoring

Purpose

The Elkhart Lake Improvement Association will hire a contractor and will also utilize volunteers to refine their groundwater model. Surface water and groundwater data will be collected. This project will provide direct measurement of a significant component of the lake water budget. This grant is directly linked to a large scale grant. The project deliverable will be a report containing the following elements: 1) Data collected as a part of grant LPL-1267-09 and the reporting of the data as listed in the grant agreement. 2) Interpretation of the data in tabular, graphical and discussion formats. 3) An explanation of how the data fits into the regional database. 4) Development of an initial water budget as described in the grant proposal. 5) Minutes and summary of public informational meeting. The Grantee must provide a draft copy of the report to Heidi Bunk (DNR lakes biologist). This grant pays for the analysis of data, database development and the report.
