Wawasee Watershed Diagnostic Feasibility Study

Posted on September 16, 2009 by

The Wawasee Area Watershed Lake Enhancement Diagnostic/Feasibility Study is not an academic study for the sake of studying lakes. This study is a results oriented project. Its purpose is to diagnose ailments, prescribe the most feasible cures, and be a guide to ultimately carry out the implementation of watershed treatment.

Our project objectives are to:

  1. Examine the overall health of area lakes and streams and the conditions of their watersheads.
  2. Identify existing and potential threats to the water quality of area lakes.
  3. Prepare a long term management plan or preventive maintenance plan designed to be a plan of action for future activities to preserve existing lake water quality and the integrity of the watershed ecosystem.
