Our plans are to continue our attempts to inform, evaluate, measure and take any steps necessary to protect the quality and health of our lakes.
The MPCA has established a monitoring schedule where they sample large lakes (greater than 500 acres) in a watershed for two years in a ten year cycle. Our lakes will be sampled in 2016 and 2017. The MPCA has recommended continued secchi monitoring and skipping the water chemistry monitoring unless a decline is seen in the secchi readings.
