Marathon County: Lco-Marathon Class 7: Marathon County proposes to continue toward completion of its Phase II efforts to classify 11 lakes in eastern Marathon County. Major project elements to include: 1) Develop lake management plans, 2) Establish planning committees, 3) Review and revise shoreland zoning ordinance, 4) Hold one-day water forum, and 5) Develop guide for Zoning Board of Adjustment members.

Marathon County: Lco-Shoreland Ordinance Rev.: Marathon County proposes to amend or create a shoreland zoning ordinance that complies with the requirements of NR 115, Wisconsin Administrative Code (as revised effective February 1, 2010) and retain existing regulations that exceed the water resource protections of NR 115 or are specific or unique to local needs.

Project deliverables include: 1. Copies of any fact sheets or handouts created for public hearings. 2. A summary of the comments received at public hearings. 3. A certified copy of the County Board-approved updated shoreland ordinance or ordinance language (if integrated into other codes). 4. Any GIS maps of the shoreland zone or shoreland condition surveys related to the project.

Specific conditions for this Project: 1. The WDNR will be provided electronic and hard copies of all data and or reports or surveys generated as a result of this project.

Marathon County: Turning Plans Into Action; Improving Water Quality In Marathon County'S High Priorty Watersheds:
Project Scope and Description of Deliverables
This is a partial project as the entire project did not get funded. The partial funding will be used to support a staff position in Marathon County to implement BMP\2019s in the 319 Fenwood Watershed, which is a major contributor of P to the Big Eau Pleine and ultimately the Wisconsin River.

Project final deliverables include: Contact property owners, comprised chiefly of farmers, and introduce BMP\2019s and recruit landowners to participate in the BMP actions of the watershed plan \2013 turning plans into action.

Specific project activities include: Introduce information and education to farmers that are sources of sediment and nutrient NPS\2019s, conduct watershed stream inventory for buffers, assist landowners with program sign-ups to install BMP\2019s on the landscape needed to protect water quality.

Special Conditions: This partial funding can be used to assist Marathon County with the staff needed to improve water quality. It is expected that Marathon County will reapply for complete funding next grant cycle.

This scope summarizes the projects goals to hire staff needed to implement hard and/or soft practices to improve water quality as per the Marathon County plan and DNR\2019s Wisconsin River TMDL recommendations.

Final deliverables 1) Reduce phosphorus to streams by 50-90% in the Fenwood Creek Watershed by installing practices on 15 new farms over 3 years, focus on riparian buffers in the Fenwood Creek watershed to have at least 25,000 linear feet of 35 foot buffer and all agricultural land to meet a phosphorous index (PI) of 2.5 2) inventory agricultural lands with and without buffers 3) Monitor for TP and TSS to track nutrients in the watershed, and in 5 other streams in the county 4) Work with Lake Wausau Association to form a Lake Wausau Watershed group, 4) Conduct education events with landowners in the Big Eau Pleine Watershed and the county.

Project activities include: 1) Sample lake and stream water quality, 2) provide technical assistance and education 3) develop relationships with property owners in the county and watersheds 4) Implement the Marathon CLWR management plan, Fenwood Creek 9 Key Elements plan, Lake Wausau Protection and Improvement Plan, and Big Eau Pleine Strategies for Reducing Fish Kills Plan.

Special Conditions: 1) Collaborate and share with DNR all monitoring data, 2) Collaborate with Wisconsin Valley Improvement Company to sample tribs and lake water quality for the BEP, 3) Work closely with EPPIC and BEPCO and other lake associations to improve shoreline stability4) Semi-annual meetings with DNR water quality staff and the Wisconsin River TMDL Coordinator for updates and data sharing.

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 Biologist.
