​2021-03 - Sand Lake
Estimated Cost:  $13,769.00

NOTE:  This project was moved into 2023 as it became too late in the season to get plantings in before the cold weather set in. ​
​     This project consists of the construction of 100 feet of Subsurface Drain and Underground Outlet, seeding and construction site stabilization in an area showing severe signs of erosion.  The primary focus is to protect and prevent sediment from leaving the area of concern and entering the lake.
