Notes
Friendship Lake was evaluated for phosphorus and algae every two years between 2014 and 2024. Chlorophyll-a values were too high as seen in algal blooms on the lake during the summer months. The 2020 evaluation showed some improvement in algal levels and the 2024 evaluation resulted in a delisting proposal.Pollutant
