Beginning in mid December, Landwehr Construction will start to work on improvements to Whitaker Pond and the channel downstream of the Dillon storm sewer. This pond empties into Lambert Creek which in turn empties into Vadnais Lake.  Vadnais Lake is the drinking water reservoir for the City of St. Paul and surrounding communities.  VLAWMO has partnered with the City of White Bear Lake, White Bear Township, Ramsey County and the St. Paul Regional Water Service to improve the effectiveness of the pond and forbay, and to enhance the water quality leaving Whitaker Pond.

Construction will take place throughout the winter.  If you have any questions, please contact VLAWMO at 651-207-6070.

The area was graded, hydro-mulched and seeded, and more rip-rap was added this spring. Through a state grant, native vegetation including trees, shrubs, perennial wildflowers, and grasses will be planted June 1 and 2.
