Friends Of Devil'S Lake State Park: Res-Of Devil'S Lake By Bottom Water Withdrawl: Friends of Devil's Lake State Park, Inc. will construct and begin operating a siphon pipe system for the purpose of withdrawing P-rich bottom water from Devil's Lake over approximately a 15-year period.

A full description of the project scope and project deliverables is available in the grant application, which is a part of this aggreement.

The DNR will be provided with both a paper copy and an electronic copy of the final report. Information will be disseminated to the public as described in the grant appllication.

Friends Of Devil'S Lake State Park: Lmi-Devil'S Lake Bottom Withdrawal Pipe Alterations: The Friends of Devil's Lake State Park propose this project to reconstruct the siphon pipe system at Devil's Lake State Park, Sauk County, by lowering the portion of the siphon that is above the ordinary high water mark (OHWM) lake level so that the pipe will flow as a gravity feed flow system whenever the lake level is above the OHWM. This entails digging up about 900' of the pipe, and lowering the highest point. An additional butterfly flow valve will be installed to provide control of the pipe for safety and operational purposes. Deliverables of this project will be a brief final report documenting that the project was completed, including photos of the project during construction.

Special condition: The Sponsor agrees to abide by the "Conditions of Approval" contained in the Chapter 30 Regulated Activities manual code approval issued by the Department of Natural Resources on 6/6/06.

Village Of West Baraboo: Baraboo River Corridor Shoreline Restoration Plan: This project will prioritize stream bank protection and fish habitat enhancement areas and complete a shoreline Restoration plan that focuses within the City of Baraboo, Villages of West Baraboo and North Freedom, according to the Baraboo River Corridor Plan phase I. The plan will focus on identifying specific stream bank stabilization and fish habitat enhancement techniques best for large river shoreline protection and restoration, stream bank erosion reduction, sediment and non-point pollution reduction, native vegetation, and protection of boat and angling access points to the Baraboo River. Plans will include protecting and enhancing fish habitat using in-stream habitat improvement combined with bank protection. Outreach during this planning phase will include meeting with communities, WDNR- Fish Mgmt. staff, local anglers, as well as various conservation organizations and paddling clubs, communicating the proposed plan, and gaining feedback prior to a final plan. Recommendations will be used by the communities during the next phase of implementation of final shore and fish habitat protection designs.

Deliverables: Identify and prioritize areas with steep slopes in need of shoreline protection and enhancement of fish habitat. Identify areas of native vegetation to be protected, and areas of critical habitat. Output preliminary hydraulic calculations to ensure flood elevations do not increase if shoreline and habitat practices are put in place. Estimates of costs to implement specific practices will be included. Identify specific shoreline and fish habitat techniques appropriate for large rivers. Plans will be shared with conservation organizations, paddling clubs, the public and communities will post results on their websites. The Friends of Baraboo River will coordinate outreach and education efforts. The communities of Baraboo, West Baraboo and North Freedom will hire a consultant to implement final designs.

City Of Reedsburg: Baraboo River Corridor Plan: Phase 2: Project Summary: Inventory the Baraboo River and document habitat, erosion and bank vegetation. Identify environmental, recreational, educational, water quality and habitat improvements through stakeholder focus groups. Confirm goals and objectives for river, and develop conceptual plans for recreational improvements, and water quality and habitat improvements. Make recommendations for shoreline restoration, fish habitat, and native vegetation plantings that will reduce runoff to the Baraboo River. Corridor project includes the City of Reedsburg, Sauk County, Villages of Rock Springs and La Valle. Public workshops and meetings with local decision makers,as well as press releases and community websites, to share the findings for the project.

Deliverables: River corridor inventory and analysis, stakeholder needs assessment and recommendations to improve fish habitat, river access, and water quality. Conceptual plans to include prioritizing actions and costs.
