Abstract: Peterson Lake is a 500-acre backwater lake located between an unnamed side channel of the Upper Mississippi River and the Minnesota shoreline. The lake is triangular in shape and is located immediately above the earthen dike at Lock and Dam 4. Peterson Lake lies between river mile 753.0 and river mile 754.8. The project area is defined as Peterson Lake, including the Lock and Dam 4 dike, the Minnesota shoreline, and the barrier islands separating Peterson Lake from the side channel. The purpose of this Definite Project Report is to document existing habitat conditions, predict future habitat conditions, identify existing and future habitat deficiencies, define specific habitat objectives, and identify alternative plans that would address the objectives.
