Purpose	Using the results of a Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 314 Phase I Clean Lakes Study, the Oklahoma Water Resources Board (OWRB) received a CWA section 319 grant to demonstrate the feasibility of reducing suspended sediment within the Fourche Maline Arm of Wister Lake in LeFlore County, Oklahoma. Two main goals were the focus of this demonstration: 1) to install a breakwater, or barrier to wave action, to reduce fetch and therefore reduce suspended sediment problems associated with this lake, and 2) to demonstrate whether native aquatic plants could be established in Lake Wister.
