Aquatic Habitat and/or Angler and Boater Access projects were
completed in 2015 at Lake Helen in Gothenburg, the North
Platte Interstate 80 Lake, the Cedar River Fish Bypass at Spalding,
Sandy Channel State Recreation Area, Burchard Lake, the Johnson
Lake inlet, and Medicine Creek Reservoir. New angler access
and motorboat launch facilities were built in conjunction with
the replacement of a leaky outlet structure at Burchard Lake and
were accomplished without draining the lake. Shoreline angler
access improvements at the Johnson Lake inlet were dedicated
to Commissioner Lynn Berggren's father, Myron Berggren, and his
uncle, Oliver Berggren.
