Letter of Interest March 16, 2021 Kevin Magee, Environmental Planner 50 Boston Street Guilford, CT 06437 [email protected] Dear Mr. Magee, We are pleased to submit our formal response to the Town of Guilford Request for Qualifications/Request for Proposals for the Lake Quonnipaug Management Plan (#3-2021). Northeast Aquatic Research is dedicated to objective scientific evaluation and aquatic consulting. We wish to provide our professional services to the Town of Guilford and to guide the community through long-term aquatic plant and water quality management. Sincerely, Hillary Kenyon, Certified Lake Manager Northeast Aquatic Research, LLC 74 Higgins Highway Mansfield, CT 06250 [email protected] Northeast Aquatic Research, LLC 3/17/2021 Page 1 of 17 2. Company Information Northeast Aquatic Research, LLC 74 Higgins Highway Mansfield, CT 06260 Project Contacts Hillary Kenyon, MS Hannah Moore George Knoecklein, PhD Certified Lake Manager & Project Contact/Client Manager Principal Limnologist/Owner Supervisory Scientist [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] 860-942-9269 860-456-3179 203-848-4610 Firm Statement of Qualifications Northeast Aquatic Research, LLC (NEAR) is a small limnological research and lake management consulting firm. We work directly with homeowners, lake associations, municipalities, and government agencies. We strive to develop open lines of communication with stakeholders to guide communities through ecologically and economically responsible lake management. Lake management is propelled by both science and community, and we do our best to communicate complex information and ecological principles needed for sustainable water quality, watershed, and aquatic plant management. Since the company was founded in 1997, we have authored hundreds of lake monitoring and management planning reports for waterbodies in the northeast. The company has always (23yrs) operated under the Northeast Aquatic Research name, and is a one-member LLC. We primarily service CT, NY, and MA, but we have also had clients in RI, VT, and NH. The company was founded by Dr. George Knoecklein, who remains the owner and principal of the firm. Dr. Knoecklein now typically serves as an expert technical advisor, and project management is overseen by NEAR staff. The company does not sell and does not have any financial stake in any type of in-lake treatments or remediation implementation systems. We believe it is extremely important to remain objective and financially separated from in-lake treatments. When we make lake management recommendations that require implementation and remediation, we encourage our clients to contract directly and separately with implementation companies. In those cases, our clients will frequently have us serve as supervisory scientists and as objective evaluators of implemented techniques. 3. Relevant Experience The following presents a list of several projects that our firm has completed within the last five years. Coventry Lake (378-acres): Coventry, CT Project contact – Eric Trott, Land-Use Director (860) 742-4062, [email protected] Town Hall, 1712 Main Street, Coventry, CT 06238 NEAR was hired jointly by the CT DEEP and Town of Coventry to be part of the Invasive Hydrilla management task force. Our work with the Town primarily involves detailed aquatic plant surveying to find and manage Hydrilla verticillata, a highly invasive aquatic plant that has newly invaded select CT waters. Our work at Coventry Lake also includes water quality monitoring in herbicide treatment areas to ensure that there are no adverse impacts to dissolved oxygen or protected state-listed species. Detailed Hydrilla management included underwater diving surveys, experimental benthic barrier installation/maintenance/removal, mapping, and reporting to CT DEEP. This project involves detailed whole-lake aquatic plant surveys to find and document the coverage of invasive, native, and Northeast Aquatic Research, LLC 3/17/2021 Page 2 of 17 state-listed species. The project involves coordination with the CT DEEP NDDB office to locate and ensure protection of the state-threatened Vasey’s pondweed (Potamogeton vaseyi). NEAR works jointly on this project with Ecosystem Consulting Services and Solitude Lake Management. NEAR was the primary author on the most recent Coventry Lake report, which can be found at: https://www.coventryct.org/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Item/10835?fileID=14318 Lake Oscawana (386-acres): Putnam Valley, NY Project contact – Kathleen McLaughlin, (347) 526-2573; [email protected] Lake Oscawana Management Advisory Committee Town Hall - 265 Oscawana Lake Rd, Putnam Valley, NY 10579 Our firm has been contracted for long-term water quality monitoring, aquatic invasive species monitoring/management consulting, and limnological consulting with the Town of Putnam Valley since the early 2000s. Beginning in 2016, the Town expanded our role and took on a total watershed assessment. This assessment included detailed nutrient loading models, stream monitoring, stormwater sampling, onsite wastewater treatment assessment, and ongoing consulting with the Town Highway Department, Engineer, and Building Inspector. We mapped and prioritized catch basins in the watershed, identified illicit discharges, prioritized high-nutrients pollution areas, and made recommendations for hard and soft LID and BMPs in the watershed. The final Lake Oscawana Management Plan was published in early 2020, and we are now in the process of helping the Town apply for state funding for watershed implementation construction projects and catch basin retrofits. The Lake Oscawana Management Plan can be found at: https://www.putnamvalley.com/wp- content/uploads/2020/10/NEAR-Oscawana-Lake-Management-Plan-Final-Draft-03-02-2020-1.pdf Candlewood Lake (5,240-acres): Danbury, New Fairfield, Sherman, New Milford, CT Project contact – Brian Wood, (860) 350-3294; [email protected] FirstLight Power Resources, Land Management Department 143 West Street, Ste. E, New Milford, CT 06776 NEAR has served as the primary limnological consultant for FirstLight Power Resources since 2015. The company owns and operates hydropower facilities on Candlewood, Lillinonah, and Zoar Lakes. Our work for FirstLight in the past five years involved a detailed data analysis of historical Candlewood water quality data, aquatic plant management techniques, and water-level drawdown practices. As part of a comprehensive nutrient reduction planning strategy, we coordinated five years of in-lake and watershed monitoring. Our firm provides ongoing lake management consulting and identified the significant issues with onsite wastewater treatment in certain areas of the Candlewood shorelines. That effort supplemented the Town of Danbury in their municipal sewers feasibility project. Our nutrient mass modeling effort and long-term comprehensive data assessment has aided in the Candlewood Lake Authority’s renewed effort to publish a formal lake management plan, which is currently underway. The 2019 Nuisance Plant Monitoring Report can be found at: http://www.lakelillinonahauthority.org/Reports/2019_Nuisance_Plant_Monitoring_Report.pdf Highland Lake (445-acres): Winchester, CT Project contact – Beth Papermaster, (860) 614-2740; [email protected] Highland Lake Watershed Association / Town of Winchester PO Box 1022, Winsted, CT 06098 Our work managing Highland Lake has been heavily focused on aquatic invasive species management, water quality monitoring, and evaluating the impacts of lake water-level drawdown. We completed a comprehensive drawdown evaluation in 2017, which included a detailed water quality assessment of data collected from 2008-2016. We also recently completed a watershed roads, erosion, and nutrient track-down assessment in 2020-2021. This assessment included detailed Northeast Aquatic Research, LLC 3/17/2021 Page 3 of 17 mapping of catch basins, review of Town MS4 and roads maintenance, stormwater sampling, evaluation of various private/public properties and recommendations for LID/BMPs in the shoreline and immediate watershed. We are currently in contract to complete a holistic Lake Management Plan in 2021.

Our work is a combination of water quality, cyanobacteria, and aquatic invasive species management. The Society has us perform routine monitoring visits, nutrient sampling, phytoplankton/cyanobacteria monitoring, and limited watershed planning and management. In the last five years, we have carefully engaged the community in key management decisions regarding onsite

These water bodies provide important recreational opportunities, aesthetic values, and ecosystem services that contribute to the quality of life, environment, and economy of the state. Over the past 400 years, Connecticut has undergone significant alterations to its landscape. As a result of these mostly anthropogenic activities, including clearing of forests, agriculture, and urban and rural development, there have been significant impacts to the water quality of Connecticut’s lakes and ponds. While a natural process, the eutrophication of lakes caused by excess nutrient export in runoff has been, and continues to be, a pervasive problem (Siver et al., 1996).

TROUT- RIVERS & STREAMS – Many are letting us know that trout fishing continues to be good to very good. The main advice is to “move around” and to “try different offerings” as the fish are spread out and have been “finicky” at times. Flows remain near-perfect for fishing in many areas (see stream flow graphic on page 4), temperatures continue to be comfortable for both trout and anglers (although look for more heat next week), and the weather forecast is good. While not currently an issue anywhere, you can check stream flows anytime (real time stream flow data from 68 USGS gauging stations can be found at the USGS web site). Anglers are finding good action at many areas throughout the state. Anglers should remember to try a number of tactics and methods until you find what the triggers the fish to hit. Insect hatches are near peak in terms of the diversity of species at one time.
