COLUMBIA COUNTY: Tarrant Lake, API, SPM Plan & Water Chemistry Load Analysis

The Columbia County LWCD will inventory the aquatic plant community in Tarrant Lake, Columbia County, and write an aquatic plant management plan following DNR guidance. This process will provide education to the community while inviting their input. A bathymetric map will be created to document lake depths, which have changed due to the recent dredging project. They will also use data already collected to do a water chemistry load analysis and model phosphorus. All these efforts will be used to update the comprehensive lake management plan. There will be public meetings, and results will be compiled into a final report which will be posted on the County LWCD website.
