Sigurd Olson Environmental Institute is sponsoring a comprehensive lake monitoring and management planning project on Eureka Lake and East and West Twin Lakes. Activities include: aquatic plant, shoreland, water quality and quantity, and tributary loading monitoring; watershed mapping and modeling; sociological surveying; and planning with local stakeholders. The project includes regular public participation/engagement and education and outreach. All data collected, including lab results, must be entered into SWIMS. The final deliverable will be a comprehensive lake management plan.
Water quality samples collected as part of this project will have analysis completed by the Applied Research and Environmental Laboratory at Northland College.
