Purpose
Project Scope
The Big Sand Lake Property Owners Association (BSLPOA) is sponsoring a project to conduct trial EWM spot treatments to address large and dense EWM colonies in the high traffic boat landing area. This project monitors the efficacy and native plant selectivity for two summers post treatment.
Activities: 1) Conduct pretreatment confirmation and refinement surveys of the herbicide treatment areas. 2) Conduct quantitative monitoring of the 2024 herbicide treatment using sub-sample PI surveys. 3) Complete late-season EWM mapping survey. 4) Create annual project reports.
Deliverables: 1) Following the pretreatment confirmation and refinement surveys, an email-style report with map(s) of the survey results and finalized treatment plan would be provided to the BSLPOA, WDNR, and other project partners for review prior to the treatment. 2) Annual AIS Monitoring and Control Strategy Assessment Report; the 2024 and 2025 reports will include cumulative data collected under this overall 3-yr project.
Conditions: 1) All monitoring shall follow DNR protocols.
This scope summarizes details provided in the application and does not negate tasks and/or deliverables described therein. Data, reports, surveys, and supporting information, including photos, maps and GIS data, must be submitted to the DNR Biologist in electronic format and in any other format they specify.
If a consultant provides a final report, it is recommended that the Grantee provide the DNR Biologist with a draft for comment on report adequacy prior to making a final payment to the consultant. Include electronic copy of the final report along with or prior to submission of grantee's final payment request.
