Single-family waterfront homeowners who live on or have a dock on Meydenbauer Bay are invited to participate in our annual Milfoil Treatment Program.
Both Eurasian milfoil and Brazilian elodea are invasive aquatic weeds and illegal to sell in Washington State. During warm weather, both of these noxious weeds grow quickly, get tangled in boat propellors, and because they grow so dense, it can become difficult to swim or fish. The treatment is effective against both of these so will improve the quality of water in front of your property.
The MBNA recently received a renewed 5-year permit with the Dept. of Ecology for Northwest Aquatic Eco-Systems Inc. to treat the Bay to improve water quality. Last year 34 households participated in our program. Organizations who also treated for milfoil included the City of Bellevue Parks Dept., the Meydenbauer Yacht Club, 101 Meydenbauer and Bayshore East COA, and a waterfront apartment building.
If you are interested in learning more about this program or wish to participate, please email Betty Mastropaolo at [email protected]. The cost is the same as last year, $330, and is due by July 10th.
