Fish Creek 9‑element planning advances; three culvert projects and additional funding reported
Summary
Committee heard Fish Creek 9-Element planning is in year two of three with project funding and an initial budget stated in the minutes ("started at $320,000.00 ($100K is for the planning process, $227K is for projects)"); Fish Creek Phase 4 received $200,000 additionally and other culvert projects (Mountain Rd Siskiwit River replacement) were described as $200,000 projects.
County Conservationist Ben Dufford told members the Fish Creek 9-Element planning and implementation project is in its second year of a three-year effort. The minutes state the project 'started at $320,000.00 ($100K is for the planning process, $227K is for projects)' and that the county contracted the Burke Center for planning work; Ben said completing the 9-Element plan will help leverage EPA and Great Lakes Restoration Initiative funding.
Committee members were told Fish Creek Phase 4 received an additional $200,000. The Mountain Road Siskiwit River culvert replacement is described as a $200,000 project that DNR and the township are working on, with DNR performing work and Bayfield County providing support through a subcontract. The N. Sweden Road (18 Mile Stream) culvert replacement has been ongoing for about five years and remains short of sufficient funding.
