We know so many of you are dealing with so much tree and other damage from our recent storms. Please be safe with chainsaws and other equipment. Our Land and Resource Management Department wanted to pass along one recommendation for people with shoreline.
Damaged trees and branches along the lakeshore can be removed, but the recommendation is for stumps to remain because that keeps the lakeshore stabilized and prevents erosion. If you have questions about any recovery work on the shoreline our staff is ready to help. Call 320-762-3863.

A new study from the MPCA looks at five chloride-impaired trout streams in the Duluth area and suggests strategies for improvement.
