COBB-HIGHLAND RECREATION COMMISSION: Blackhawk Lake Study-Phase 2

A watershed assessment will be conducted on Blackhawk Lake. Land use will be mapped, surface runoff patterns identified, and environmentally sensitive areas in the lake watershed delineated. Watershed loadings will be modeled and loading reduction strategies developed. Hydrologic and nutrient budgets will be calculated. Combined with the results of the Phase 1 in-lake and outlet assessment, lake management needs will be identified, goals will be set for the lake and downstream areas, and a comprehensive lake and watershed management plan will be developed, including recommendations regarding operation of the outlet structure, loading reductions, and support of recreational use activities and fisheries and aquatic life in the lake and downstream.
