Lakes Planning Report. PUB-SS-1014 2005. This purpose of this study is to assess water quality throughout Lake Owen and to compare present water quality with historical levels.

The Lake Owen Association proposes to conduct water quality monitoring on Lake Owen for the purpose of assessing the lake's trophic status, benchmarking lake water quality conditions and gaining an understanding of the watershed. Water chemistry, temperature and dissolved oxygen profiles will be sampled at two sites, four times from May through August as described in the application. A digital map of the lake watershed will be prepared that documents the physical and environmental characteristics of the watershed. A report will be developed that characterizes the trophic status of the lake, the characteristics of the watershed that influence lake water quality and describe management opportunities for lake water quality protection.
