z <br />4. This wetland presently does not have a viable fishery <br />due to its shallow depth and frequent winterkill conditions. <br />our preliminary coordination with the Minnesota DXR <br />indicates that Wetland 893 is presently stocked on an annual <br />taais as a "put and take" fishery.Aside from theseand stocked <br />fish, the remaining fish population of <br />pears <br />to be comprised solely of bullheads and minnows. We <br />observed no evidence of carp infestation; however, this <br />needs to be confirmed. <br />5. The basin has a relatively natural appearance and it is <br />not readily apparent to most observers that the wetland is <br />of artificial origin. <br />r <br />Future management of this basin mar range from <br />maintenance of the ctatus quo to the active pursuit of all <br />four management objectives listed previously. Because of <br />the characteristics described above, maintenance of the <br />wetland's existing qualities may be a viable management <br />scenario. We have developed the following work scope and <br />budget assuming that all of the potential management <br />objectives will be actively pursued. This allows the City <br />the option of s:lecting a management program of lesser <br />intensity. (� <br />sgcq E OF FORii <br />Task 1.
