Edgewood Aquatic Invasive Plant Control

Eurasian watermilfoil and curlyleaf pondweed were detected in Edgewood Creek and in ponds on Edgewood Golf Course during surveys conducted for the Aquatic Plant Monitoring Plan Project in 2018. Due to the extent of the infestation, a comprehensive survey of Edgewood Creek, ponds, and Friday Station reservoir was conducted in September 2020. During the planning phase, plant fragment control is proposed to limit the spread of this infestation and prevent it from entering Lake Tahoe. The size and complex nature of this series of infestations requires close coordination and planning with Edgewood Companies' staff, planned restoration projects, and a secured funding source.
