Angle Lake News: an Aquatic Plant Survey and a Call Out for lake dwellers to become stakeholders.



The city is beginning an aquatic plant management effort for Angle Lake that is made possible through Department of Ecology grant funding. Herrera Environmental Consultants will begin the first step with a comprehensive aquatic plant survey and bathymetry mapping on August 14. I will confirm this date soon so that lake residents are aware that Herrera will be out on the water all day conducting successive passes on the lake in a grid pattern and plant sampling. The activity may be interesting to some, curious to others. 

The next phase will involve presentation of findings at future stakeholder’s meetings and begin discussing what the Integrated Vegetation Management Plan (IAVMP) looks like. My plan is to have representatives from: lake property owners, City departments (Public Works, Parks, Community Development), King County Lakes program/Noxious Weeds, and WDFW. 
 
I am reaching out at this time to recruit folks who wish to be a member of the stakeholder’s group. I’m looking for lake residents that have an interest and have the time to give (maybe two or three people). We are looking at two VIRTUAL meetings, up to two hours each: 

  1. First meeting (October?) to engage, obtain input on the review and the IAVMP goals, survey results, potential management techniques, and get ideas on what you are concerned about. 
  2. Second meeting to finalize the IAVMP 

Please respond to me,.... [if you want to be a stakeholder.] Thank you!
