<br />Assumptions <br /> <br />• The actions outlined in this work plan are consistent with the DNR Blanding’s turtle <br />fact sheet and flyer to protect Blanding’s turtles during the construction of the Lake <br />Orono Restoration and Enhancement (LORE) Project. <br /> <br />• The project is anticipated to take place from September 2020 (lake draw-down) to <br />April 2021 (work complete, lake rebound). No surveys are anticipated for spring <br />2021, as the work will conclude prior to melt conditions, and the lake will re-fill <br />naturally eventually to the normal pool elevation above the dam. <br /> <br />• City of Elk River staff will perform monitoring for Blanding’s Turtles September 15 of <br />in post dewatering monitoring for Blanding’s Turtles until project construction begins. <br /> <br />• Permit fees for turtle relocation if needed is not included in this proposal of services. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
