Long Lake Creek Subwatershed Assessment Update
The assessment work is underway in the Long Lake Creek subwatershed. After tagging carp this spring with radio tags, Research and Monitoring staff, along with project contractors, are busy with:
- Tracking carp movement throughout the watershed and conducting carp biomass estimates
- Compiling water quality and flow data for the subwatershed to inform the watershed and lake modeling
- Working with our project contractor to identify a subset of wetlands that will receive in-depth assessments
Earlier this month, Research and Monitoring staff also provided a demonstration for Long Lake Waters Association members of some of the carp assessment work on Long Lake (pictured above). Another demonstration is being planned for September.
