Aspen
Outdoor Services completed the weed harvesting on Birch Lake during the first
week of August. Prior to the harvesting activity,
Aspen also refitted the conveyor system on the harvester with new conveyor
tracks.
This
year, the harvesting activity consisted of opening homeowner access where
needed, removal of dead plant material, and cutting and removing nuisance
vegetation. The focus was on improving the recreational value of the lake while
maintaining the aquatic habitat. The
higher than normal high water level helped to reduce the amount of nuisance
vegetation that needed to be cut.
Harvested
plant material was deposited at the Ramsey County Composting facility.
