People harvesting wild rice

Summary edit

Description
Deutsch: Mitglieder des Leech Lake Stammes der Ojibwe ernten Reis am Mud Lake, der sich am Leech River befindet, 17 Meilen flussabwärts des Leech Lake Damms, 3. September 2015. Wildreis, der durch hohe oder unregelmäßige Wassermengen beschädigt werden kann, ist ökologisch und wirtschaftlich wichtig für die Region. Die Mitarbeiter des Distrikts führen einen Balanceakt durch, indem sie die Abflüsse durch den Leech Lake Damm so steuern, dass der Lebensraum des Reises optimiert wird, während sie gleichzeitig innerhalb der Parameter bleiben, die im Betriebshandbuch für den Leech Lake festgelegt sind. In Minnesota gibt es mehr Flächen mit natürlichem Wildreis als in jedem anderen Bundesstaat, und die beiden Seen Mud und Goose, die am Leech River aneinander grenzen, bilden zusammen die drittgrößten Wildreis-Erntegebiete des Bundesstaates. Der Leech Lake ist das größte Wildreis-Erntegebiet im Bundesstaat. USACE Foto von George Stringham

District staff performs a balancing act, managing releases through Leech Lake dam to optimize rice habitat, while staying within the parameters outlined by the operation manual for the Leech Lake. Minnesota has more acreage of natural wild rice than any other state and the combined Mud and Goose lakes, which are adjacent to each other on the Leech River, account for the third largest wild rice harvest areas in the state. Leech Lake is the largest wild rice harvest area in the state. USACE photo by George Stringham
