Mechanically remove Marsh pennywort from the margins of Schwan Lake at Twin Lakes State Beach in Santa Cruz for a period of 10 days to improve water flow through the lake. During this time, mechanical equipment (aquatic vegetation harvesters) will access, cut, collect, and transport cut pennywort material to an offload point where the material will be transferred to shore equipment for off haul and disposal off site. Mechanical equipment will enter and exit the lake adjacent ot the existing overflow weir. Once all work is complete, the area will be raked and returned to preconstruction conditions. Project protects natural resources and supports continued use and maintenance.
