Lakes Planning Report

The Rinehart Lake Association, in conjunction with researchers from the U.W. Stevens Point, proposes to monitor water quality and chemistry on Portage County's Rinehart lake, and at the same time, produce maps of the lake's watershed, aquatic vegetation, and soft sediment depths. Project activities would include: 1) Watershed map development, 2) Groudwatershed map 3) Well water chemistry monitoring 4) Inventory septic systems for setbacks and annual usage, 5) prepare final reports of Phase 1 and 2 data collection. The Department of Natural Resources will be provided with both a paper copy and an electronic copy of the final report. The project results will be disseminated to the public through a report to be completed at the end of a proposed second phase of the project.
