Milfoil in Lake Winnipesaukee
YS is right on with his suggestion that this must become a lake wide effort.
The current milfoil assessment on boat registrations does not come close to funding the work required to remove the milfoil and keep it from coming back. My opinion is the milfoil fee must be raised significantly and the local communities must also provide funding and work together to get the job done.
A clean lake is key to the survival of local communities and a big tourist business. Where would NH be if Lake Winnipesaukee was overrun with milfoil?
This is a subject we all should agree on and become active in supporting. If we ignore this problem for a few more years, it will require a much bigger effort to address.
