Kim W. will check with them to see if the siren company check would  be different and worthwhile.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Committee Reports:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Shoreline  Captains\/Membership \u2013 <\/strong>We are in need of some shoreline captains,  especially on 233rd    Street.&nbsp; If  you know of someone please contact Kay Yoch.&nbsp;  We will check with Kay to see where we need captains and who we have  now.&nbsp; Have her email board with areas in  need of captains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Exotic Species \u2013  <\/strong>After many emails and tours of the lake, the DNR  has approved treatment of 28.4 acres of milfoil for this year. On 6\/10 the DNR  toured and didn\u2019t find anything.&nbsp; On 6\/26  DNR toured again with Patrick (PLM) and board members finding some very heavy  infestations of milfoil.&nbsp; Presently the  state needs to develop a \u201cReducing Treatment Plan\u201d, as required by state  law, before we can treat these areas if we want to qualify for matching grant  monies.&nbsp; Also, 24D is not allowed if you  want grant monies.&nbsp; Effectiveness: is to  treat early in the year and must be before August 15th.&nbsp; LWIA board approved a motion: If Bill Craig  did not get confirmation from Chip Welling, Minnesota Exotic Species, by &nbsp;July 8th.&nbsp; The board approved going ahead with PLM doing  the treatments, and forgoing grant monies at this time.&nbsp; Bill also noted there is talk of various  treatment plans that may be sanctioned by the DNR and Exotic Species  Departments.&nbsp; One being a 5 year  treatment plan of treating 20% of the area around the lake each year; this  could be a vegetation treatment plan established by the lake with the  state.&nbsp; This plan would treat up to 150  feet from shoreline out \u2013 creating a ring around the lake.&nbsp; The thinking is this will allow boaters the  chance to get out from their docks.&nbsp;  Presently the thinking\/belief is if boaters can avoid areas of heavy  milfoil infestations because they are out in the lake, then these areas do not  warrant treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Communications\/Public  Relations \u2013 <\/strong>Focus is on getting newsletter information to  Rick by Monday eve.
