Lake Iroquois Project Featured in Vermont Business Magazine

A recent Vermont Business Magazine article highlighted improvements made to Beebe Lane, the road that leads to the Lake Iroquois public beach. The project, led by the Lake Iroquois Recreation District and supported by the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission, added drainage features like culverts, swales, and ditch turnouts to help control stormwater runoff from the gravel road. These improvements help keep sediment and phosphorus out of Lake Iroquois and protect water quality.

Posted Friday, November 6, 2020

The draft permit for use of ProcellaCOR herbicide to control the milfoil infestation in Lake Iroquois is posted on the VT Department of Environmental Conservation's Environmental Notice Bulletin. This draft permit is part of the LIA’s application process to receive a permit to control Eurasian Watermilfoil in Lake Iroquois.  It is listed as Aquatic Nuisance Control - Public Pesticide Application Number 3038 and its status can be tracked at Environmental Notice Bulletin: https://enb.vermont.gov/?id=7714

The public comment period for this permit closed in early June and the permit application and comments that were received have been under review by the Department of Environmental Conservation since then. As of this date, November 6, 2020, a decision on this permit application has not been made. We will post updates here and on our Facebook page as further information becomes available.
