COLUMBIA COUNTY: Lake Management Plan Dev- Swan Lake

Columbia County Land & Water Conservation Department will develop a citizen-input based lake management plan for Swan Lake, Columbia County. Data collected includes near-shore fish survey, water chemistry sampling, and a shoreland health inventory. The planning team will compile sport fishery data, water quality data, and other historical information. They will also draft a slow-no-wake emergency ordinance to help protect shorelines during high water events. A sociological survey and numerous public meetings will invite public input, as well as serve as a venue to share results. The final report will be posted on the Columbia County LWCD website.
