The lake management plan provides a guideline for maximizing public use without compromising the lake's natural integrity and addresses the physical and cultural concerns of the lake. Highlights of the plan include continuing best management practices, preserving the southwest wetland area, distributing lake educational materials, continuing mechanical harvesting of aquatic plants, experimenting with sediment covers, creating a fish management plan, performing sediment analysis, completing a wetland restoration project, appointing a volunteer lake monitor, and forming lake committees. Implementing management plans will reduce negative cultural impacts on the lake by stabilizing and protecting water quality.
