The Big Bearskin Lake Association will conduct a lake water quality improvement program with the goal of increasing water clarity and resulting sechi disc readings This project will use barley straw to inhibit blue-green algae growth in the lake. Anticipated results include improvement in water transparency and aquatic plant growth and distribution through out the lake. Specific activities of this project include the installation of the straw bales, water quality monitoring, and aquatic plant survey, and development of a final report.
