We started out strong in January with favorable weather to knock off one of our targeted winter projects. Then warm temps and rain delayed us, though it appears frost is still thick where water was not standing. We are hoping that within the next week the second of our three scheduled winter projects will be worked on as the cold sets in again at least briefly. If all goes well we will move right on to the third project and wrap up winter construction. This would be good as I have slough of projects to look at and decide potential for design and permitting for coming year.
Below are some pictures from our most recently completed project in Green Lake County. A water control structure and ditch fill will allow flooding of a Reed Canary Grass flat which had been farmed and will now provide some great waterfowl habitat.
With good frost (14″) we were able to make quick work with haul trucks to move dirt and dump it directly into the ditch while creating some deeper pockets for diversity with the material we removed.
