CONSTRUCTION WAS UNDERWAY on a major improvement to the spillway for Diamond Lake when this photo was taken in October 2015. Key to the project was the installation of a 10-ft. drop box that will prevent the infiltration of the carp fish species into the lake. In 2010, heavy rains resulted in an influx of carp, which eliminated the vegetation and disrupted the habitat and food base for other game fish. (County Conservation Photo)
