New look at Lake Bavaria

For many years, a type of red rock gravel has covered the surface of Lake Bavaria's public access. This gravel can break down and erode into the lake causing sediment pollution. Last week, the surface was replaced with crushed granite. Granite is a harder rock that does not break down as easily as red rock, reducing sediment pollution in the lake. Six inches of granite was placed on top of the current red rock and will be compacted in place by traffic.
