concentration. A monitoring :Jrogram will be used to track fluridone levels during the treatmentperiod. The program is consistent with the provisions of the GElS.The only anticipated major impact offluridone application is the elimination of Eurasianwatermilfoil in the treated areas. There could be some localized and largely temporary impact onnative plant species, as there is limited documentation of effects on many ofthe submersed plantsof Eagle Lake. However, re-establishment of a native assemblage in areas currently dominatedby milfoil is expected within several months to a year, primarily by seed germination. Noadverse impacts on aquatic fauna are expected. No impact from intermittent irrigation oflawns'or gardens-is expected at the target concentration. No impacts from passage through septicsystems is expected. No risk to human health is anticipated. There will be temporary limitationof water use by humans (i.e., no swimming for 24 hours after application), but this representsminimal interference at the time of the planned treatment and successful control of milfoil willenhance longer term lake use. The economic wellbeing of the Eagle Lake area will not beharmed by the treatments, and would be enhanced by increased success of the overall milfoilcontrol program.A monitoring plan has been developed to track the treatments and assess impacts on the plantcommunity. Pre-treatment monitoring has been conducted for three years already.DSEIS for Eagle Lake 2 ENSR
