My concern is the opening of the Menasha Lock. It try to keep myself educated on the importance of invasive species. Lake Winnebago will always be threaten by this. With the closing of the Menasha Lock it has shown a huge impact economically for Menasha Marina and the City of Menasha. This is only the tip of the impact. The hope of someday going from Lake Winnebago to Green Bay will now never happen after a huge amount of money was spent to re-do the lock in working condition. Also, we need to protect Lake Winnebago’s river and streams. Invasive species need a long term solution. Electrical barrier could be a solution to protect the Lake Winnebago Waterways.
