Project Overview
Currently the 6 acre area of the Severance Lake WMA is managed for Deer, Small Game, Forest Upland Birds, Pheasants, Waterfowl, Turkey, and Doves. The main unit portion of this WMA is in need of preventative tree removal maintenance, the area is being encroached by smaller 1-2 inch diameter trees. With this encroachment the upland prairie area of this WMA will no longer exist in years to come, unless removal occurs. The area is manageable by mowing at this point due to the size of trees present. Taking care of this issue now will help keep costs down as mowing will not be as costly as mechanical removal at a later date.
