The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources has ordered some upgrades be made to the Mill Pond Dam, according to the monthly newsletter from Milwaukee County Supervisor Pat Jursik.
They are:
- the removal of vegetation from specific areas under the supervision of an engineer;
- the maintenance of healthy grass cover on the embankments;
- a structural evaluation by an engineer of the spillway abutments to determine if masonry repairs are required;
- the repair of the sluice gate, which is currently inoperable; and
- the installation of two benchmarks.
