Title

BLAINE WETLAND SANCTUARY UPDATE

 

Background

The restoration work in the BWS will be continuing as outlined below:

 

                     The contractor, AES will be finishing required restoration activities which include winter mowing, winter raking/scarification, and herbicide applications in mid-March.

                     Additional tree removal will also need to be done but will not be scheduled until next winter.

                     Next fall, a meeting will be scheduled with you to inform you of the timeline to finish the tree removals in the “restoration needed area”.

                     AES plans to use a bobcat and brush mower but may need to bring in other equipment but will not know until they start the work. 

                     The trails will be closed during this time.  Signs and barricades will be installed at the trail heads.
