Kusel Lake Management Plan
This is the final draft of the Kusel Lake Management Plan developed with the help of UW/SP and Waushara County. We hope to present it to the Kusel/Wilson/Round Lakes Protection & Rehabilitation District at is quarterly meeting on Saturday, September 19, 2015 at 9:00 AM for the District's approval. Then it has to be approved by the Township. After the Township approves it, it has to be approved by Waushara County. Finally, it has to be approved by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.
