Bone Lake and Moody Lake Low Velocity Fish Barriers

As part of the CLFLWD's Capital Improvement Plan, the District has scheduled projects to help improve the water quality of Moody and Bone lakes (both listed as impaired by the MPCA) including rough fish removal and the construction of fish barriers at the upstream inlets to Bone and Moody lakes, and the Bone Lake outlet. Rough fish are known to cause significant internal loading to lakes by their disturbance of lake sediments. Once the rough fish removal is complete, the barriers will prevent the reestablishment of the lakes rough fish populations. The proposed project involves the installation of low velocity fish barriers (designed by MDNR) on Bone and Moody lakes.
