In response to the infestation of Eurasian Watermilfoil in Lake Augusta, the CRWD undertook the Lake Augusta Milfoil Treatment Project to control Eurasian Watermilfoil in Lake Augusta. The District acts as fiscal agent for this project. Treatment of Eurasian Watermilfoil is carried out by the Lake Augusta Association under the guidance and direction of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
In 2013, the Board of Managers of the District was petitioned by Lake Augusta Residents to amend the Lake Augusta Euraisian Watermilfoil Project to an Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) control Project. On March 12, 2014, after preparation of an Technicial and Cost Specifications Report, and upon review by the Board, a public hearing was held to amend the project. That same day, the Board moved to amend the project, allowing for the control of all aquatic invasive species under this project. The new title for this project is Lake Augusta Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) Project #01-2.
