Purpose

Namakagon Lake Association is sponsoring a comprehensive monitoring, modeling, and planning project. The project will emphasize shoreline restoration, including understanding implementation barriers and identifying priority restoration sites. Activities include: sociological survey; ordinance review/inventory; water quality, water level and discharge and shoreline monitoring; summary of previous aquatic plant and fisheries monitoring/reports; watershed mapping and land use characterization; and nutrient/land use scenario modeling (WiLMS). This information will be integrated with stakeholder/public participation to create a comprehensive lake management plan. Deliverables include: 1) a comprehensive lake management plan with stakeholder survey and results summary; quantified management goals; lake condition assessment; stressor analysis; specific management recommendations; and 2) a non-technical summary for distribution to all riparians. Special Conditions: 1) sociological surveys should be coordinated with DNR Research Sociologist; 2) SLOH will be used for laboratory analyses unless otherwise approved by DNR Lab Coordinator; 3) DNR monitoring methods (e.g. aquatic plant point-intercept survey) must be followed. This scope summarizes the project detail provided in the application and does not negate tasks/deliverables described therein. Data, records, and reports, including GIS-based maps and digital images, must be submitted to the Department in a format specified by the regional Lake Coordinator.
