Aquatic Invasive Species


Lakeland Times, June 30, 2006

Cliff Schmidt of Iola makes a pass by the docks near the Kennedy boat landing on East Chicago Street in Minocqua while spraying the water for aquatic invasive species that have recently bloomed near the landing. The landing’s docks were closed for a short time, but the boat landing remains open.

According to Minocqua-Kawaguesaga Lake Association President Sally Murwin, Schmidt is expected to return to the site in about two weeks to complete a post-inspection for a written report to be submitted to the Department of Natural Resources.

All area boaters are also encouraged to continue to check boats and trailers for invasives before and after their excursions on area lakes
