Clean Lake Tips

EFFORTLESS STEPS TO CLEAN, CLEAR LAKES

Phosphorus

1. Don’t use it!
2. Seaweed uses phosphorus to grow.
3. Tell your local supplier or lawn care provider that you only want zero phosphorus fertilizer.
4. Once releases into the lake it stays in the sediment.

Preserve Our Lake Bottom

1. Stirring lake bottom suspends the phosphorus.
2. Accelerating in shallow water creates sediment plumes.
3. Shallow water is highlighlighted in blue.
4. Wakeboard and surf in deeper water (You will have a larger wake anyway).
5. Begin pulling skiers and tubers in deep water.
