Earth Day Kick Off of the T-Docks Landing Shoreline Restoration Project

The ERCLA Restoration Committee along with other ERCLA volunteers along with Quita Sheehan from Vilas County Land and Water got together on Earth Day to kick off the T-Docks Landing Shoreline Restoration project located on Yellow Birch Lake. The project is a collaboration between ERCLA, Vilas County Land and Water, and the City of Eagle River.  The project’s objectives are erosion control, enhance the vegetative diversity for pollinators and birds, deter geese, enhance ERCLA’s commitment for continued grants, and provide educational opportunities for Eagle River Chain homeowners and visitors who use the T-docks boat landing. The group spent the morning weeding out the thistle and spreading seeds of various types of grasses in among the existing sedge grasses.
