FOBP is restoring the small islands on the lake.  We are replacing the buoyancy and replanting. The islands will help with oxygenation of the water and be a refuge for lake waterfowl.

In November 2025 one of the small islands was returned to the lake. The new buoyancy is the foam filled pipes around the island, replaced coir mat and new plants. The plants will dieback in the winter but regrow in the spring, protected by the wire cages.  

We will monitor the island over the winter. We have another island to restore with new buoyancy which will be returned to the lake in spring 2026.
