The goal of the project was to reduce sediment loading to Branch Lake by fixing NPS sites in the northeast section of the watershed. The project addressed 33 sites in the target areas, including a vegetative buffer and ramp stabilization demonstration project at the public boat launch. The project also completed 38 technical assistance visits to help camp owners fix NPS problems, completed the watershed survey update, and trained 23 local residents through UMCE’s Watershed Stewards Program.

 
UMCE staff held an Outreach Planning Session for steering committee members and watershed residents to guide long term public outreach and education efforts. This outreach session used the LOGIC-model to help the group develop specific, measurable outreach objectives, a target audience, methods for delivering their message, indicators of success, an implementation strategy and evaluation techniques.
