The lake restoration uses 1.5 million from the states marine fuel tax and 500000 from federal and state fishing license funds. The lake was lowered about 12 feet via a 4 foot dam valve as work proceeds. An archaeological survey is required before construction.
Archaeologists categorize Lake Macbride finds into Archaic hearths and spear points, Woodland camps, undated Euro American sites, and 1930s CCC-era artifacts. Jon Sellars of Archaeological Consulting Services notes mobile bands, seasonal hamlets, and public displays as the goal for returning artifacts to state repositories or displays before the lake refill next year.
Grants of 500 to 5000 dollars fund tree plantings on public lands such as streets parks schools courthouses libraries cemeteries and trails. The Million More by 2004 program is by Adamson Associates and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources Forestry and Prairies Division. Local governments and service groups may apply. call 515 225 2969 or visit aplusa.net. Postmark deadline December 4.
