The Lake George Park Commission released a press release documenting good success against Eurasian Watermilfoil.
Although eight new sites were added this year, 164 of the 177 locations where milfoil has ever been recorded were cleared in 2009, a 92.7% rate, the highest rate recorded in the twenty-four
year history of the program. There was a reduction in the number of un-managed milfoil beds from 16 to 9, also the best annual achievement recorded. The 15 remaining beds and moderate areas are smaller in area and compare to a high of 41 in 1999. Several huge persistent milfoil beds, the subject of intense management effort for years, were pronounced cleared for the first time in 2009.
