Invasive species consultant visits Steenburg Lake

8 Jul 2025 7:57 AM | Anonymous

The Steenburg Lake Community Association (SLCA) welcomed Invasive Species Consultant Bob Canning to the Lake July 7, 2025.

Bob joined SLCA President Joanne Burghardt and member Dave Langman on a 3-hour tour of the lake. Bob was hired by the SLCA to provide an up-to-date report of how widespread the invasive species Eurasian Water-Milfoil is in the lake, and whether it has spread since the last report was done in 2018.

We toured the entire lake, including all the little bays, while Bob mapped the Milfoil and pulled other plant samples.

The SLCA expects to have Bob’s report in time for discussion at the AGM on August 3, 2025.

If own property on Steenburg Lake and have not paid for an SLCA membership, we ask you to consider joining us. Your $40 annual fee helps pay for projects like this one. Email: membership@steenburglake.ca
