Algae Treatment Completed
Excessive algae treatment with a Copper Sulfate Solution was done in early August. Water quality was improved significantly following the treatment. Comorants have become a problem on Meeker County Lakes and a group is forming to deal with this issue.
Double-crested Cormorant Control
Association President George Kraemer has joined the Lake Washington Association in an effort to limit the explosive increase in DCCO on Pigeon Lake. Meetings with the Fisheries people from Hutchinson and New Ulm have taken place. The USFWS and Minnesota DNR also attended. We believe the DCCO foraging is harming local fish numbers and the DCCO need to be reduced in number. See Lake Washington Association website for links and details.
