The DASH strategy employed on Anvil Lake in 2017 was unable to reduce the occurrence and density of EWM in North Bay, indicating the effort of 129 diver hours was unable to keep pace with the expansion of the EWM population. Qualitative mapping indicated that the acreage of colonized EWM in Anvil Lake increased from 14.8 acres in 2016 to 30.9 acres in 2017.
Appendices for the Anvil Lake Comprehensive Management Plan including public participation materials, PI survey data, and comments on the draft plan.
This report builds upon the 2011 lake protection plan and covers the typical management planning study components assessing the lake's watershed, water quality, use, and aquatic plant community. The management planning project incorporated aquatic plant information following the establishment of EWM and CLP and fills the gap in the lake's planning needs by developing long-term monitoring and management of the lake.
