Purpose

Gilmore Lake Association is sponsoring a five-year Eurasian watermilfoil control project that will monitor and manage a pioneering population of Eurasian watermilfoil and inform and educate the local community. Project activities include: 1) Monthly meandering aquatic plant surveys during the growing season of each year; 2) Seasonal and/or pre- and post-treatment aquatic plant monitoring following guidelines provided by the Department; 3) Chemical treatment and/or SCUBA and manual removal of Eurasian watermilfoil; 4) A whole-lake point-intercept survey in 2015; 5) An updated Aquatic Plant Management Plan in 2017; 6) Information and education program. Special condition: WDNR\2019s Aquatic Plant Management in Wisconsin guidance should be followed for point-intercept survey monitoring, pre/post treatment monitoring, and aquatic plant management plan development unless otherwise approved by the Department. Project deliverables include: annual progress and final reports of monitoring and management activities, including aquatic plant survey spreadsheets and pre/post treatment monitoring, and any educational materials developed, and an updated Aquatic Plant Management Plan. This scope summarizes the project detail provided in the application and does not negate tasks/deliverables described therein.
