In June 2011, an emergency effort to rehabilitate Shay Pond was undertaken by USFWS, California Department of Fish and Game, San Bernardino Forest Service, and the Big Bear Community Services District. Theses agencies removed encroaching vegetation and recountoured the pond boundaries and increased open water habitat. In July 2011, the Carlsbad Fish and Wildlife Office was partially awarded $25,000 to continue habitat rehabiliation and implementation of a long-term monitoring and mangement plan for the San bernardino Conty population of unarmored threespined stickleback.
