Eurasian Water Milfoil

See the 2024 Lake Management and Water Quality Reports posted in the box below.

The 2025 weed control treatments were on June 12, July 20, and September 4th.  

As usual, the 2025 treatments included aquatic weeds along the developed shoreline out to five feet of water depth. 

Weeds along the undeveloped shoreline will not be treated.  Invasive species like Eurasian Water Milfoil, Curly Leaf Pondweed, and others can be treated if found anywhere in the lake.

Muck Buster enzymes will also be applied as usual to parts of the developed shoreline including the canal, northeast tip, and south shoreline.  No application to the undeveloped shorelines.

Our efforts toward control of the Eurasian Water Milfoil are working. We can't take our eyes off the sights.

Water Quality Samples will be collected as usual sometime the last week of September or the first week of October.  They are collected from three locations including north, middle, and south.  All three locations are roughly along the centerline of the lake, and not near any shoreline to get a more centralized reading of water quality.  This is how the samples have been gathered since 2017 when Water Quality monitoring was added to the Lake Management program.
