Statistics from the Lake Host program show that 35% of the boaters there were either unaware or only moderately aware of the milfoil issue.
Legislation that would have raised new revenue for milfoil prevention and treatment by requiring out of state boaters to obtain an annual water access permit has been killed by the House Transportation Committee.
pending a final report later this month, the state will likely recommend using an aquatic herbicide to control the milfoil that has infested Phillips Brook on Leavitt Bay.
Ossipee Lake Alliance and the town of Ossipee will hold a public meeting to discuss milfoil on Ossipee Lake and how to address the new infestation found in Phillips Brook.
