Invasive Plant Species Program (aka Milfoil) Program Status Pam Wilkinson & Tim Greer

Since the program inception in 2005 a total of 137 tons of milfoil has been removed from Little Sebago at a cost of just over $1m. The graph represents the numbers of bags removed, each bag weighing approximately 20 lbs. dry weight.

Keep Our Divers and Operation Safe Please keep 200 feet of distance from the milfoil boat for the safety of our divers and to prevent the venture pump intake from losing suction by waves, causing the operation to shut down and milfoil returning into the water. Please look for a diver flag on the boat and the flag on a buoy above where the diver is underwater.
