2022 Annual Report
•
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission
7
The following is a list of other projects completed or nearly completed in 2022 using Aquatic
Habitat Program, Sportfish Restoration and Nebraska Environmental Trust funding:
North Platte I-80 Lake – The south side of the lake received several upgrades. Five fishing
piers were built, and Americans with Disabilities Act access was added to the boat ramp and
one pier. Barriers to prevent overgrown vegetation also were installed near these fishing piers.
Valentine National Wildlife Refuge – Carp barriers — which prevent carp from moving into
or out of a water body — often can clog with vegetation. Rotating screens were installed to
prevent this problem in the outlet structures of Clear and Hackberry lakes.
Grable Pond North at Fort Robinson State Park – This pond was deepened along the
perimeter. The outlet structure also was replaced and an ADA-access jetty was installed, with
fish habitat features placed within casting distance.
