According to the information the <br /> 111, <br /> City has been able to glean, Spring Lake was last stocked in 1983 by the DNR. <br /> The City residents have received great benefit from Spring Lake as a recrea- <br /> tional resource from both a fishing, aquatics, and boating perspective. To <br /> ensure that the fishing is maintained at its current high level, the City <br /> would like to formally request use of the aeration equipment and continued <br /> monitoring of the oxygen levels of the lake during the 1985-86 winter season. <br /> Spring Lake last froze out in the winter of 1982, and based on recent history, <br /> it appears that the lake freezes out every third year, which would place 1985- <br /> 86 as a potential freeze-out year. The fish population is currently good, <br /> with game fish in the 1 - 2 pound range. I understand from our phone conver- <br /> sation, that the portable aeration equipment that was used at Silver Lake in . <br /> North St. Paul in prior years would be available for the City's use as Silver <br /> Lake will be receiving a permanent aeration system. <br /> You indicated during our phone conversation that you do not envision any pro- <br /> blems with the county aeration equipment being available and that the County <br /> would provide this service at no cost to our residents. The only problem that <br /> you indicated was whether or not the proper electrical connections were avail- <br /> able at the well house. You stated that you would see that the electrical <br /> • <br /> connections were brought up to code at County expense. <br /> • . <br />
