PROPOSAL/SUMMARY
Carver County Parks is seeking an amendment to their conditional use permit (CUP #75-2) to
eliminate the horsepower restriction at Boat Access #1 located in Lake Minnewashta Regional
Park. The park is located west of Highway 41 on the eastern shore of Lake Minnewashta. The
CUP prohibits the launching of boats with motor sizes greater than 10 horsepower from Access
#1.
BACKGROUND
On November 21, 1977, the City Council approved Conditional Use Permit #75-2 for Lake
Minnewashta Regional Park including the following conditions:
4.01. Review and Approval.
Detailed development plans within the proposed park shall be submitted to the City for
review and comment prior to approval by the County. It is not contemplated that the City
shall have approval authority over detailed development plans so long as they are
consistent in scope and capacities with the Master Plan, except for appropriate
development standards which may be applied to development generally within the City.

Any development plans not consistent in scope and capacities with the Master Plan shall
require an amended conditional use permit.
6.04. Lake Access.
Access to Lake Minnewashta through the park shall be limited to non -motorized boats or
fishing boats of fifteen (15) horsepower or less.
Originally, the park had only one access located at Little Minne Bay (Boat Access #1). This
access consisted of 30 car/trailer spaces and restricted access allowing boat motors of 15
horsepower or less.
During review of the Minnewashta Regional Park Master Plan in 1982, the Metropolitan Council
noted that the 15 horsepower motor restriction placed by the City of Chanhassen on the public
access in the park was discriminatory in nature. Furthermore, it was inconsistent with the
"Cooperative Program in Providing Public Access Sites on Metropolitan Area Lakes" which was
prepared by the Metropolitan Council, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR),
and the State Planning Agency. The Metropolitan Council stated they would withhold grants for
the City and park until the 15 horsepower restriction was removed.
As a result, staff worked out a compromise that would satisfy DNR & Metropolitan Council
standards while still protecting the environmentally sensitive Little Minne Bay. On September
12, 1983, the City Council approved the amendment to Conditional Use Permit #75-2 for Lake
Minnewashta Regional Park including the following change to 6.04:
6.04. Lake Access.
A watercraft access to Lake Minnewashta through the Park has been provided in the area
so designated as boat access on the Detailed Development Plan of the 1982 Park Master
Plan Update. Said access (Boat Access #1) is to be limited for launch of watercraft of ten
(10) horsepower or less and have a capacity of 10 car/trailer spaces. An additional access
(Boat Access #2) without horsepower restrictions having a capacity for 25 car/trailer
spaces shall be developed and located in accordance with the plan titled "Lake
Minnewashta Park 2nd Access" marked Official Copy.
In 1983 there was a public access on the western shore of Lake Minnewashta adjacent to Leach's
Resort (since replaced by residential development). The decision was made to close this public
access at the time the newly created Boat Access #2 in Lake Minnewashta Regional Park would
open.
ANALYSIS
In 1974-1975, when the plans for Lake Minnewashta Regional Park were first being considered,
the City was concerned about the possible effects a public access could have on Little Minne Bay
given the shallow and narrow nature of the channel connecting Little Minne Bay to Lake
Minnewashta. During dry, low water level conditions this channel becomes extremely shallow.
It was thought that boat motors with higher horsepower and larger hulls could negatively impact

the channel floor. Attached is an aerial photograph created by Mark Hurd Mapping Co. in 1945
showing Lake Minnewashta and Little Minne Bay during extremely dry conditions. Notice the
channel is completely void of water. Also attached is an article developed by the Minnesota
Lakes Association that describes the possible impacts of motorized watercraft on the lake
environment.
The DNR approved the establishment of slow -no wake surface zoning within 100 feet of shore,
in designated areas, in Little Minne Bay and Lake Minnewashta. In a letter written to the City,
stamped "Received September 29, 2004", Carver County Parks states:
• The "No Wake" restriction eliminates the need for a horsepower restriction in Little
Minne Bay.
• It is not reasonable to enforce a horsepower restriction and keep track of boaters coming
and going from two boat accesses and their motor sizes.
Carver County also stated that it is difficult for park users to launch their boats from Boat Access
#2. The difficulty with launching at access #2 is due to the shallowness of the area, especially
during dry conditions, and because it is unprotected from high winds coming off the lake. Staff
agrees that the slow -no wake surface zoning makes the need for a horsepower restriction
obsolete. However, staff is concerned that eventually there will be a need for drudging in order
to maintain access through the channel between Little Minne Bay and Lake Minnewashta due to
vegetative growth and shallow depth in that area. Therefore, Carver County Parks must contact
the DNR to obtain proper approvals and permits before drudging may occur. Staff also
contacted the following Minnesota DNR staff members requesting comment:
Kim Elverum Boat & Water Safety Coordinator
Julie Ekman Area Hydrologist -West Metro, Central Region 3
Wayne Barstad Regional Environmental Assessment Ecologist
Daryl Ellison Area Supervisor for Fisheries
None had any issues with the elimination of the horsepower restriction at Boat Access #1 in Lake
Minnewashta Regional Park; however, Mr. Ellison stated that there are lots of water lilies and
other quality emergent and submergent vegetation in this bay that should be protected with a
"no -wake" zone restriction.
Carver County Parks' "Lake Minnewashta Regional Park Master Plan", which was updated in
October 2002 and has not been approved by the City of Chanhassen, lays out plans to make Boat
Access #1 the sole boat launch in the park. It is Carver County's intention to eventually close
Boat Access #2 and expand Boat Access #1 infrastructure to accommodate 35 trailer parking
spaces and 20 regular vehicle parking spaces.

On January 13, 2005, Carver County held a public information meeting regarding the proposed
amendment. Notice of this meeting was mailed to all Lake Minnewashta property owners and
was also posted in the Chanhassen Villager. Five lake residents attended the meeting, none of
which opposed the lifting of the horsepower restriction.
Staff supports the amendment of Conditional Use Permit 75-2 to eliminate the horsepower
restriction at Boat Access #1 in Lake Minnewashta Regional Park. In regards to the proposed
future intensification of Boat Access #1, the City must critically analyze the impact of such
intensified use on Little Minne Bay before considering approval of such plans.
The following changes will be made to Section 6.04 of Conditional Use Permit No. 75-2:
6.04. Lake Access.

CIIY OF CHANHASBE'N
Earlier this summer we talked about the horsepower restriction listed in the Lake Minnewashta
Regional Park Conditional Use Permit issued by the City of Chanhassen. Since the inception of the
conditional use permit the DNR has added "No Wake" restrictions to the bay of Lake Minnewashta
where boat access # 1 is located. The "No Wake" restriction eliminates the need for a horsepower
restriction in the bay of Lake Minnewashta.
Additionally, the horsepower restriction is not manageable. Boaters come and go throughout the
day with varying motor sizes. A boater will choose one of two parking areas in the park based on
availability of a parking stall and not the size of motor. It is not reasonable to enforce a horsepower
restriction and keep track of boaters coming and going from two boat accesses and their motor sizes.
For. these reasons, Carver County Parks requests the conditional use permit be amended to
eliminate the horsepower restriction at boat access # 1.
Enclosed is the proposed Amendment # 1 for the Conditional Use Permit for Lake Minnewashta
Regional Park
Please notify me with any questions or concerns by October 15t', 2004.

SUBJ: Conditional Use Permit, Lake Minnewashta Regional Park
(Formalize Previous Council Action)
In August of 1982, Carver County ed that their conditional use
permit for the Lake Minnewashta onal Park be amended. The
request was processed, public h i held by the Planning
Commission, and their recommend' io submitted*to the City
Council. Five changes were be' re ested. Four were minor.
The fifth, was a request from a Me politan Council to elimi-
nate the existing 15 horsepow regul ion for launching boats at
the Regional Park. That req st recei d considerable discussion
and the City Council acted appoint citizens committee to
review the request, consid alternati , and to make recommen-
dation.

held the second public hearing on this item. No public comments
were received. The Planning Commission acted to endorse the
recommendation of the Lake Minnewashta Study Committee.

The recommendations of the Lake Minnewashta Study Committee have
been incorporated in the attached amended conditional use permit.
The permit also encompasses the four minor changes considered one
year ago. Recommendations of the Planning Commission, which do
not relate to the conditional use permit itself, are recommended
to be approved - but not as a part of the conditional use permit.
Specifically, city staff should be instructed to physically close
the access adjacent to Leach's when the new access is completed and
to insure that the "no wake zone" is designated in accordance.
with the new Water Surface Usage Ordinance. Regarding the boat
access policy, such should be considered by the Planning
Commission as a part of their current ordinance revisions.
Approval of the amended conditional use permit, as herein
attached, is recommended.
Report Of The
Lake Minnewashta Study Committee
June 1983` '
Members: Arnie Hed - Chair
Clark Horn
John Neveaux
Tom Merz
Pat Murphy
Established: by City Council --August 1982
Charge: To study public access alternatives for Lake Minnewashta
Background:
1. City/County Conditional Use Permit.for Lake MinnewaShta.
Regional Park has 15 horsepower limit.
2. City's informal access adjacent to Leach's Resort is
unrestricted.
3. Private access (Leach's) is unrestricted.
4. DNR does not recognize any of these 3 accesses as meeting
their definition. Therefore, no fish management programs,
5. Metro Council would not approve development master plan or
future development funding for Lake Minnewash a. Regional Park
with the 15 horsepower restriction. Also, affected City's park
grant consideration.
6. County applied for C.U.P. amendment deleting the.i5 horsepower
restriction.
7. Park & Recreation Commission recommended approval.
8. Planning Commission recommended denial.
9. City Council established this corunittee to study alternatives.
Committee Work:
1. Met with DNR & Metro Council representatives:
a. Neither DNR nor Metro Council will use their.funds for
more shoreline when Regional Park has 2 miles.
b. DNR would be amenable to location other than the park -if
if
they did not have to fund land acquisition.
Attachment #2

a. Total of 32 to 37 parking spaces must be provided to.nieet
DNR• an(3 Metro Councilre uirements. Some of .these spaces
could be assigned to the restricted.access on Little
Minne.
2. Reviewed pot6ntial access areas around lake:
a. Existing city access adjacent to Leach's Resort:
• x Developed plan for moving'Minnewashta Parkway.
* Not economically viable.
* Residents object to current use and long term use as
access.
* Apparently unwilling sellers.
b. Leach's Resort:
* Development potential of land too valuable for long
term use as access.
* Extremely expensive to acquire.
C. Island at south end of lake north of Hwy. 5:
* Safety problems with car/trailer-access off and onto
Hwy. 5.
* Marginal in size and may require fill on island.
* Environmentally sensitive around island as spawning_
area.
* Fill required would make turn lanes expensive and
environmentally harmful. Permits for filling would be
difficult to obtain.
* Potentially expensive and difficult to acquire.
d. Existing neighborhood accesses (street extensions) located
in several subdivisions:
* Extremely disruptive to established neighborhoods.
* -Expensive and difficult to provide parking.
e. Lake Minnewashta Regional Park (3 potential areas):
* Little Minne is environmentally sensitive and should
not be the principal.public boat entrance to the lake,
access wy -%out seriously disrupting 'le pianned uses
of pier j and swimming. Also t at the "end" of
the entrance road, it hinders the',.pt-ational
flexibility of the park plan.
* The one other remaining area, located in the southern
third of the park, may detract from one picnic area,
but would not require any extraroad work and a
launching and parking area could be reasonably
designed and permits should be easily obtainable.
Conclusions:
1. An access meeting DNR requirements is in the long term best
f
interest of the City.
2. Resolving the issue at this time maximizes the City's control
of the solution.
3. The total amount -of access spaces currently available to the
lake exceeds the minimum numbers required by DNR and Metro
Ccuncil, but is uncoordinated, creates conflicts on the west
side of the lake, and goes not meet the definition of public
access used.by those agencies.
4. Access meeting DNR and Metro Council standards can be obtained
within the boundaries of Lake Minnewashta Regional Park with
less impact on the community than any other location around
the lake.
w ' Recommendations:
We hereby recommend that the City Council endorse the concept of dual
public accesses located within Lake Minnewashta Regional Park. We
believe this concept provides the best long term solution to providing.
reasonable public access to Lake Minnewashta.with the least impact to.
the cora.urit:y and to the environment; and with minimal impact on the
County's plan for the regional park.
We recommend that the following specific proposals be adopted as the.
means of implementing this solution:
1. An additional boat access with no horsepower Kestriction will
be established in Lake Minnewashta Regional-Park.as shown in
Attachment A. This access will be limited to a maximum of 20
parking spaces. This access should be developed in the spring
of 1985 at which time a permanent County.park employee will be
resident at the park.
2. At such time as the new public access is open, the City should
physically close its access adjacent to Leach's Resort. The
City should make a policy statement that the closing of a
quasi -public access or private access will not constitute a
reason or justification, to increase public access parking 'or
Capacity. This statement could be included within the City's
Comprehensive Plan as is proposed for No.'6.

4. The County's master plan be revised to reflect these changes
and the City's conditional use permit be amended to reflect
these changes.
5. Little Minne should be surface zoned as a "Slow -- No make"
zone.
31 6.0 The City should establish a.firm-policy position regarding all
public accesses, such* as "tlie city hereby establishes a. boat
access policy and .standard of one (1) parking space for every
-: 20 acres of water surface such being both a minarnum and
s maximum standard on all City la;.es. Further, this policy and
standard should be included within the City's Comprehensive
Plan as well as within a land. -use ordinance (water surface or
zoning), such requiring -a 4/5ths vote to -be modified thus
providing reasonable assurance of continuity.

Arnie Hed Lake Minnewashta Study Committee
Waibel presented the staff report.indicating that approximately
one year ago, the Metropolitan Council and D.N.R. noted opposi-
tion to the horsepower restriction on. the Minnewashta Regional
Park access for reasons that it is discriminatory. The City
Council, in recognition that resolution of this matter was
needed, created the Lake Minnewashta Boat Access Study Committee
to research and recommend on how public -access to Lake
Minnewashta can be best accommodated. He stated that, as far as
Minnewashta Regional PIrk is concerned, the recommendations of
the committee are found in the following amendment to the con-
ditional use permit.
6.04. Lake Access. A watercraft access to Lake
Minnewashta through the Park has been -provide * d in the area'so
designated as boat access on the Detailed Development Plan of the
1982 Park Master Plan Update. Said access is to be limited for
launch of watercraft of ten (10) horsepower or less and have,a
capacity for 10 car/trailer spaces. An additional access without
horsepower restrictions having a capacity for 25 car/trailer
spaces shall be developed and located in accordance with the plan
titled "Lake Minnewashta Park 2nd Access" marked official Copy.
Arnie Hed: 'I worked with this committee during the past few
.months as Chairman. We worked with the D.N.R. and the Metro
Council and they came out and looked at the various options and
facilities. I think we examined every possible alternative on
Minnewashta. It was our objective from the very beginning to
control the density on the lake and also to provide public access
use of the lake but not abuse. In the past, the access has been
next to Leach's Resort, which is actually a vacated street and
was not authorized by the D.N.R. so the D.N.R. did not take care
of the lake in the past 12-15 years. The use, as you are probably
aware of, on 15 and Minnewashta Parkway,. there are sometimes 40,
or more cars and trailers. So this poses a high safety problem
in Minnewashta Parkway. We looked at some creative ways of
solving the problem, by moving Minnewashta Parkway further west.
We got the cooperation from the City and the County and they
examined that. We had a meeting and perhaps 40 or 50 residents.
from around the lake attended We found that it was initally not
feasible. The most attractive to, we felt, the city, the resi-
dents of the lake, the County, D.N.R., Metro Council, was to
utilize some of the existing facilities in the regional park.

Our '.lope there was to keep non -motorized craft in Little Minnie
Bay and the motorized craft down the shoreline. The location for
the access is nearly a mile from any residential area. At the
time the access would go in, the public.access:that exists.next
to -Leach's will oe automatically closed and that would eliminate
any safety problems on Minnewashta Parkway. We anticipate that
Leach's Resort, because of economic conditions, -will probably not
run more than 1-'3 years at -the most. Currently, Leach's is
putting in about 30 boats a day. So if we are lowering the den-
sity on that lak' for an excess of the D.N.R, safety standards,
30 boats . comi,nq from Leach's and - -25. over . at the new park. But
when Leach's close, there will be no increase in spaces at the
regional park .. We f eel that in the long run we will be reducing
the traffic on the lake than what currently exists. Minnewashta
Park w.ill'be controlled with an attendant, so there will be much.
more policing then what we have had on 15.
Albee moved, seconded Py Noziska to close the public hearing, all
voted in favor and the motion carried.
Kerz moved, seconded by Albee, to. recommend that City Council
adopt amendment 6.04 to the Conditional Use Permit with the
following addition: "The Lake.Minnewashta Park be the only
access on the lake." and the following specific proposals be
adopted as the means of implementing this solution:
1. An additional boat access with no horsepower restriction will
be established in Lake Minnewashta Regional Park as shown in
Attachment A.. This access should be -developed in the spring
of 1985 at which time a permanent County park employee will
be resident .at the park'.
2. At such time as the new public access is open, the City
should will physically close its access.adjacent to Leach's
Resort.. The City sold will make a policy statement that
the closing of a quasi -public access or private access will
.not constitute a reason or justification to increasae public
access parking or capacity. This statement ee-tild shall be
included within the City's Comprehensive Plan as is proposed
for No. 6.
3. The existing public access on Little Minnie will be limited
to a maximum 10 horsepower motor size and a maximum of 15
parking spaces will be provided to serve that access. The
County should be permitted to rent'a limited number of canoes
for use on Little Minnie.
4. The County's master plan be revised to reflect these changes
and the City's conditional use permit be amended to reflect
these changes.

every 20 acres of water surface - such being both a minimum
and maximum standard on -all City lakes." Further, this.

of the governing body of any such city; and it is further
acknowledged that under the provisions of the City zoning ordi-
nance, parks and recreational areas owned and operated by govern-
mental units may be allowed within residential zoning districts
only upon the securing of a conditional use permit from the City.
1.02. County Park Proposal. The County proposes the
acquisition and development of a regional park to be located on
the northeast shore of Lake Minnewashta, designating said park as
Lake Minnewashta Regional Park (hereinafter referred to as the
"park"), and has made application to the City for approval of
said acquisition and development and the issuance of a con-
ditional use permit.
1.03. Lake Minnewashta Regional Park Master Plan. Except
as hereinafter modified or otherwise provided, the Lake
Minnewashta Regional Park Master Plan - 1982 Updated - as
approved by the County Board of Commissioners on April 13, 1982
forms the basis of this conditional use permit for said County
Regional Park. Said Master Plan and approving County motion are
attached hereto as Exhibits "A" and "B" respectively and incor-
porated herein by reference.
1.04. General Purpose. The purpose of this agreement is
to setforth the terms and conditions governing the approval by
the City of the parkland acquisition and the grant of the within
conditional use permit which are conditions precedent to land
acquisition by the County for the park.
Section 2. Park Areas C and D.
2.01. Master Plan. Whereas the City, the County, and the
Metropolitan Council of the Twin Cities have determined that
removal of areas C and D from the Master Plan of the Lake
Minnewashta Regiona- Park, hereinafter referrer, t'.o as. the "Master
Plan", will not adversely affect the purpose or function of the
park, and whereas the City and the Metropolitan Council of the
Twin Cities have approved a change to the adopted Land Use Plan
from "Parks/Open Space" to "Residential -Low Density", the parties
hereto acknowledge that land area Parcels C and D are removed
from the boundaries of the park as defined in Exhibit "A".
Section 3. Schematic Plan.
3.01. Design Capacities. The design capacities as set-
fbrth on page 26, table 6 of the Master Plan, and the Lake

generally within the City. Any development plans not consistent
in scope and capacities with the Master Plan shall require an
amended conditional use permit.
4.02. Development Schedule. The County does not propose
any significant development of the park until funds are available
through the grant program.of the Metropolitan Council. Between
1978 and 1982, the development activities at the park are pro-
posed to consist essentially of establishing a land stewardship
program, development of a primitive lake public access facility,
and use of the existing buildings as either a nature center or
museum and park employee residence.
4.03. Land Stewardship Program. The land stewardship
program will consist principally of gradually phasing from culti-
vated land to turf establishment on Parcel E, establishing a tree
nursery, beginning prairie establishment on a portion of Parcel
B, providing necessary access control in terms of gate and
fencing, controlling noxious weeds, and to the extent feasible,
controlling Dutch elm and oak wilt disesase.
Section 5.

and make recommendations to the'Carver County Park Commission in
regard to such plan. The Advisory Committee shall also monitor
park operations in a general way, and shall make recommendations
to the County Park Commission in regard to improvements in
operating policies. The Advisory Committee members shall also
keep the City -Councils of their respective cities informed .of
their general activities. They shall also serve as the conduit
of concerns from their respective City Councils to the County.

YOUR VOLE TO PROTECT AND ENHANCE MINNESOTA S LAKES AND RIVERS MARCH/APRIL, 2001 VOLUME 5, NO 1
THE IMPACTS OF MOTORIZED WATERCRAFT ON THE LAKE ENVIRONMENT
Leisurely boating around the lake on a
warm summer afternoon, cruising after
supper to watch the sunset over the lake,
fishing in the quiet of the early morning, or
watching the grandchtldrens delight In
being pulled around the lake on a water
tube or skits are just a few of the pleasures
that motorboating brings to hundreds of
thousands of people in Minnesota each year.
Yet, as the number of motorized boats
on Minnesota's lakes continues to increase,
these boats have on the lake environment.
These Impacts can be on water clarity,
shoreline erosion, plant communities, fish,
wildlife, water quality deterioration, and
human enjoyment (air quality, peace and
quiet, safety and crowding). And, the
increasing development of lakes and rivers
leads to Increased boat activity, especially in
areas that have not been traditionally used
for recreation.
How might more and more motorized
questions arise about the potential impacts boats affect our lakes? The rest of this ard-
Increased numbers of motorized boats in Minnesota
cle attempts to answer the question through
a summary of findings from the recently
completed study, "The Effects of Motorized
Watercraft on Aquatic Ecosystems" by
Timothy Asplund, Wisconsin Department of
Natural Resources and the University of
Wisconsin Water Chemistry Program. From
this point forward, "boats" will be used to
mean motorized boats Including powerboats,
fishing boats, pontoon boats and personal
watercraft.
continued on page 6
According to boat statistics provided by Kim Elverum, boating coordinator, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, in the last 20
years there has been a 28 percent Increase in registered motorboats, and boats are larger in size. There is also a significant increase in the
number of personal watercraft (PWC).
Between 1980 and 2000:
• the number of motorboats less than 16 feet decreased by almost 20 percent, from 296,969 to 241,986 boats;
• the number of motorboats 16 feet to less than 26 feet increased by almost 125 percent, from 145,000 to 323,000 registered boats;
• the number of motorboats 26 feet and over increased by 63 percent, from 4,367 to 7,138;
• PWC increased by five fold (537%) from 6,298 registered in 1990 to 33,883 registered in 2000;
• The total number of registered motorboats increased 28 per -cent, while boats of all types increased 40 percent to a total of 812,247 regis-
tered boats of all types In Minnesota In 2000.
Sharing some of his experiences from 27 years with the DNR, Elverurn
said the increase in motorboats from 16 feet to less than 26 feet comes
mostly in the 16-to-19 foot range. The largest growth in this category
is probably aluminum outboard fishing boats, as more anglers trailer
their own craft from lake to lake. The number of 17-to-19 foot fiber-
glass runabouts has also increased —both outboard and inboard -
outboard drives. The rate of increase in personal watercraft registrations
dropped off after it peaked in 1995, while there has been an increase in
kayak registration, both river and sea types, over the last 10 years.
"Minnesota's increases are not unlike the national trend," said Elverum.
"Although, surprisingly, from 1980 to 1999, Minnesotas 36 percent
overall increase In boat registrations was 13 percent below the overall
national increase in boat registrations of 49 percent."

How can motorized boats affect lakes? (continued from Page 1)
Boats interact with the aquatic
ecosystem —defined as the lake
community of plants and animals and
the physical and chemical environment
in which they exist —by a variety of
mechanisms. These can include emis-
sions and exhaust, propeller contact,
turbulence from the propulsion system,
waves produced by movement, noise,
and movement itself. In turn, these
impacting mechanisms may have
multiple effects on the aquatic ecosys-
tem. Sediment resuspension, water
pollution, disturbance of fish and
wildlife, destruction of aquatic plants,
and shoreline erosion are the major
areas of impact.
Water clarity
Propellers may disturb the lake
bottom directly, or indirectly through
the wash or turbulence they produce,
especially in shallow water. This can
decrease water clarity by increasing the
amount of sediment particles in the
water or may cause nutrients that are
stored in the sediments, such as phos-
phorus, to become available for algal
growth. Waves created by watercraft
may contribute to shoreline erosion,
which can cloud the water and decrease
water clarity.
Water clarity is important because it
affects the ability of the fish to find
food, the depth at which aquatic plants
can grow, dissolved oxygen content,
and water temperature. It is also impor-
tant aesthetically to the recreational
enjoyment of the lake and can even
affect property values.
Water qualities
Boat motors can add metals (lead,
cadmium, mercury), nutrients (phos-
phorus, nitrates) and hydrocarbons
(methane, gasoline, oil -based products)
RETURN TO PAGE 1
to the water column. These added
chemicals can affect the pH and
dissolved oxygen of the lake, which in
turn can influence the type and abun-
dance of fish.
A certain amount of the fuel that
enters into a motor is discharged
unburned and ends up in the water.
Two stroke engines, which make up
the vast majority of boat motors, are
particularly inefficient. On average, 25
to 30 percent of the boats fuel may
pass into the water column. Other
concerns include lowered oxygen levels
due to carbon monoxide inputs, and
spills or leaks associated with the
transfer of gasoline near the lake.
Plant Communities
Boats impact plant communities
(macrophytes) either directly, through
contact with the propeller and boat
hull, or indirectly through turbidity
and wave damage. Propellers chop off
plant shoots and uproot whole plants
In shallow water, and Increased turbid-
ity from boat activity may limit the
light available for plants and limit
where plants can grow. Increased waves
may limit the growth of emergent
species, such as cattail, bulrushes and
sedges. Finally, boats may transport
exotic species, such as Eurasian water-
milfoil from one lake to another.
Aquatic plants perform many
important ecosystem functions, includ-
ing habitat for fish, wildlife, and
minute invertebrate animals that are
important to the food chain. Plants
also stabilize the lake -bottom sedi-
ments, protect shorelines by providing
a buffer between the shoreline and
open water, cycle nutrients in the water
to maintain water clarity, and are food
for many organisms.
Shoreline erosion
Boat wakes create waves that can lead
to shoreline erosion, especially in areas
where shoreline vegetation has been
removed or the bank is compacted.
Wave height and other wave charac-
teristics vary with speed, type of water-
craft, engine size, and distance from
shore. Propeller turbulence from boats
operating in near -shore areas may erode
shorelines by destabilizing the bottom.
Shoreline erosion may affect water
clarity in near -shore areas, shading
submerged aquatic plants as well as
providing nutrients for algal growth. It
can interfere with fish use of shallow
water habitat, as well as wildlife use of
the land -water edge. Excessive shoreline
erosion can negatively affect property
values and can be expensive to prevent.
Fish
Direct contact of
boats or propellers
may be a source of
mortality for certair
fish species, such as
carp, and pollution
from exhaust or
spills may be toxic
some fish. Boating
can also disturb fisl
nesting, spawning,
or feeding areas.
Increased water turbidity caused by
boats may interfere with sight -based
feeding, and waves or propeller damage
can affect population levels through
habitat alternation.
Fish are an important part of the
food web. The presence or absence of
individual species, as well as overall fish
numbers, can be an indicator of ecosys-
tem health. Plus, fisheries are an impor-
tant resource for food and recreation.
Any human activity that affects water
quality and habitat has the potential to
affect fish populations,

GbXiir&0d Ilice I %Plago 6
Wildlife
Boats may have direct impacts on
wildlife through contact with propellers
or the disturbance of nests along the
shoreline by excessive wave action.
Disturbance by the fast movement of
boats, or even the presence of humans
near feeding grounds or breeding areas,
may prevent certain species from repro-
ductive success.
Noise or
harassment
may cause
loons and
other wildlife
to vacate nests, leaving the eggs or
young vulnerable to predators. Indirect
effects may include the destruction of
habitat or food sources in the shallow
areas, or impaired water quality.
Summary
While the effects of boats on aquatic
systems are complex and depend on a
number of factors, a few general obser-
vations can be made.
First, the physical effects of
propeller, waves, and turbulence appear
to be more of an issue than engine fuel
discharge. Water clarity, aquatic plant
disturbance, and shoreline erosion are
all serious issues that can be accelerated
by boat traffic.
Second, most of the impacts of
boats are felt directly in shallow waters
(less than 10 feet deep) and along the
shoreline of lakes and rivers not
exposed to high winds (less than 1000
feet of open water).
Third, these effects can have reper-
cussions for other features of the
aquatic ecosystem, including the fish
and wildlife community and nutrient
status. These observations all indicate
that the most important area of a lake
to protect is the shallow water, near -
shore habitat known as the littoral
zone. Boats that operate in deep water
with large surface areas are not likely t
be impacting the aquatic ecosystem.
There are still a number of
unknowns regarding motorboat
impacts on aquatic systems. Most of
the studies in the Wisconsin report
focus on the short-term or acute
impacts of boat activity. It is still not
clear what role boats can play in the
long-term changes of a water body, i.e.
changes in the plant community, over-
all water quality, or fish and wildlife
use. Many other factors influence these
same features and may have changed
along with the increased boat activity.
What can we do?
1. Establish No -Wake Zones.
Given that most impacts of boats are
exhibited in shallow -water, near -shore
areas, protecting these areas with no -
wake zones would be the most effective
way of reducing impacts. No -wake
zones have a dual benefit of both slow-
ing boats down and directing traffic
elsewhere. Extending a no -wake zone
to 200 or even 300 feet has the most
potential to protect the littoral zone
and help reduce shoreline erosion.
2. Establish Restricted Areas. In
some cases, protection of aquatic
resources may require restricting all
boat activity, not just speed. Boats can
still disturb plants, sediments, and
wildlife at no -wake speeds. To
1i atviv protect waterbird feeding
Shaded are
and nesting areas, a "buffer zone* of at
least 300 feet has been suggested, in
which all human activity is restricted.
3. Enforcement and Education.
Many of the environmental problems
associated with boat activity could be
resolved with better enforcement of
existing ordinances or regulations and
by promoting awareness among
boaters. Slow -no -wake zones are often
ignored, or the impacts of boats are
misunderstood. It Is also important to
inform boaters about the importance of
plants, littoral zones, and natural shore-
lines and how their activities may affect
the aquatic ecosystem.
4. New Boat Technology. All two-
stroke engine manufacturers, including
traditional outboard motors and PWCs,
must reduce air emissions by 75 percent
by the year 2025. Most manufacturers
have already introduced cleaner -burning
two-stroke motors for both motorboats
and PWCs. Four-stroke engines, which
use fuel more efficiently, produce
cleaner exhaust, and run more quietly
than traditional two-stroke engines, are
becoming much more common.

Boat Launch Facilities
It was determined that consolidation of the two
existing boat launches into one convenient location
achieves a number of important objectives.
The park drive would be designed to
be 22' wide with a rural cross-section.
Asphalt pavement is proposed to
control dust, reduce wash -boarding,
avoid mud and erosion, and minimize
ongoing maintenance costs — all of
which have been ongoing concerns
given the extensive use of the road.
As illustrated in figure 5.1, there is one
section of existing roadway that will be
eliminated to avoid redundancies in
roadway infrastructure. Once
eliminated, the existing roadbed will be
used for a new paved trail corridor as
shown on the Master Plan graphic and
defined later in this section.

Much of the public discussion about the park's development centered around the optimal location for the boat
launch. After consideration of a number of options, it was determined that consolidating the two existing boat
launches into one convenient location achieves a number of important objectives, including:
► Reducing the need for boaters to travel to different areas of the park to determine if a space is available.
► Reducing the extent to which vehicles with trailers will have to travel through the park to get to a boat launch
facility.
► Consolidating all parking spaces into a location that can be more readily observed from the Visitor Contact
Station.
► Reducing the maintenance cost associated with maintaining two instead of one boat launch.
► Providing an opportunity to use the area of the second boat launch for an alternative use.
► Ensuring that there will be adequate water depth to launch boats during lower water cycles.
► Providing a greater level of protection from the wind during launching operations.
Although consolidation of the two launches to the proposed location introduces more boat traffic into the bay
area, the advantages of this location ultimately outweighed the other options being considered. By limiting
vehicle/trailer parking to 35 spaces, it is anticipated that increased boat traffic in the bay will be manageable.

The existing drives and parking areas are used to the
extent possible for development of new boat launch
facilities,
Figure 5.3 on the next page provides a
character sketch of the boat launch and
Visitor Contact Station area.
As illustrated, the existing drives and
parking areas are used to the extent
possible for development of new boat
launch facilities. This design approach
also spreads out the parking lot so that it
is a less imposing facility. As previously
defined, a total of 35 vehicle/trailer
parking spaces will be provided, which
equals the capacity of the park's two
existing launches.
The small, informal picnic area/outdoor
classroom overlooking the bay would be
retained for boaters, trail users, and
interpretive programs.
As figure 5.3 illustrates, the boat launch
includes two side -by -side ramps to increase its efficiency. Input from local boaters and the MNDNR should be
solicited when the launch is developed to ensure that all functional issues are appropriately addressed.
Aerial (looking north) illustrating the existing boat launch #1, which will be
retained and expanded under the new master plan.
The parking lot for the launch would be paved with asphalt with some form of curbing to control vehicles and
minimize maintenance. Stormwater runoff from the parking area would be managed in an ecologically -sound
manner in keeping with the ecologically sustainable philosophy of the park.
Aside from the ramp and associated parking, the amenities to support the boat launch facility are purposefully
simple and limited. This includes convenient trails to connect each parking area to the boat launch. As illustrated
in figure 5.3, boardwalks may be needed to traverse a small lowland area. A small picnic shelter with a couple of
picnic tables is also shown near the boat launch. If the boat launch is developed before the Visitor Contact Station,
this location could be used for pit toilets on an interim basis. Boarding docks along the side of the boat launch are
also provided to ease the trailering operation. These would be wood decked and similar in design to the
boardwalks. A pull -off area near the boat launch for removing weeds from boats and trailers would be provided as
well.

A temporary stopping lane is also provided along the

A temporary stopping lane is also provided along the park drive in front of the Contact Station to allow vehicles
with and without boat trailers to stop. This lane also provides an area for vehicles with trailers to temporarily stack
while waiting for a parking space to open up. In busier times, stacking could also occur within the boat launch
parking lot, assuming that the attendant can adequately monitor and control use of the launch facility. The extent
to which space is required for stacking either along the road or within the parking lot will require additional design
consideration at the time of development, with a greater level of input from parks staff and boaters.
