“Louisiana has used these floating booms in their lakes. “The structures are designed to exclude giant salvinia from boat launch areas while allowing boats to enter and exit, which will limit the potential for it to spread to additional lakes via boat trailers exiting the lake,” Andy Yung, the district fisheries supervisor in Camden. Containment booms will not be placed at the Beech Creek Access due to the shallow water around the boat ramp. The AGFC quickly followed that up in September with containment booms being placed at the eastern boat ramp on South Shore Landing, as well as at the boat access at North Shore Landing. Biologists hope that these new containment booms, in concert with herbicide application work being done by Columbia County Rural Development Authority, can lessen the impact of the invasive plants.Ĭontainment booms first were placed at the western boat ramp at South Shore Landing on Lake Columbia in August. Giant salvinia can spread rapidly throughout a water body – under ideal conditions, the aquatic fern has the capability to double in number and size in less than a week. AGFC biologists have partnered with multiple agencies in attempts to slow its potential spread not only in this lake, but in other nearby waterways.ĪGFC biologists out of its Camden office have deployed containment booms at all boat ramps, with the exception of the Beech Creek Boat Ramp, at Lake Columbia.

MAGNOLIA – Giant salvinia, a highly invasive aquatic plant that was first detected in Lake Columbia in December 2019, has the full attention of Arkansas Game and Fish Commission’s Fisheries Division. His 46th career World Cup victory tied the Finnish jumper Matti Nykanen atop the career list.Managing Editor Arkansas Wildlife Magazine Schlierenzauer, an Austrian, was second behind Simon Ammann of Switzerland after the first round but had the longest jump of the day in the second to finish with 418.7 points. JUMPER SETS RECORD Gregor Schlierenzauer soared 240 meters in his second jump to win a ski flying event in Vikersund, Norway, and tie the record for most ski jumping World Cup victories. The American Ted Ligety missed a gate and failed to finish, meaning he is out of Sunday’s combined event that includes the slalom.Īksel Lund Svindal of Norway, who won Friday’s super-G, finished 10th and failed to overtake Marcel Hirscher atop the overall standings.
The world downhill champion, Erik Guay of Canada, trailed Paris by 0.13 in second place. Paris came down the approximately two-mile Streif course in 1:57.56 to become the only Italian winner of the race besides Kristian Ghedina, who won in 1998. ITALIAN WINS DOWNHILL Dominik Paris became the second Italian skier to win the classic men’s World Cup downhill in Kitzbühel, Austria. Despite the cheers of the fans urging her on, Maze could not make up the time.
