Project Detail

IRON RIVER PIKE CHAIN OF LAKES ASSOCIATION: Pike Chain AIS Control & Prevention Project

Purpose

Iron River Area Lakes Association is sponsoring a project to implement approved activities from the Pike Chain of Lakes Management Plan with an emphasis on aquatic invasive species. Approved activities include chemical treatment and manual removal of Eurasian watermilfoil, biocontrol of purple loosestrife, annual pre- and post-treatment aquatic plant surveys, a whole-lake(s) point-intercept survey and community mapping in the fifth project year, public meetings and outreach, and annual reporting. Deliverables include GIS maps of areas monitored; aquatic plant survey results (spreadsheets and narrative summary); information and education products; and Aquatic Plant Management Plan updates, as necessary. This information will be provided in an annual progress report and treatment plan for the next year and a final project report. Special Conditions: All monitoring and management should follow approved recommendations within the Pike Chain of Lakes Management Plan or WDNR's Aquatic Plant Management in Wisconsin guidance as specified by the Department. This scope is intended to summarize the detailed project scope provided in the application and does not supersede those application tasks/deliverables.
