Sustainable Lakes Workbook now available
The Sustainable Lakes Workbook contains a detailed description of a model process for lake management planning developed from the experiences of five pilot lakes in Minnesota. It was a two year project of the Minnesota Lakes Association in conjunction with the Center for Urban and Regional Affairs at the University of Minnesota.
The 150-page workbook includes instructions on conducting a lakeshore property owners survey, color watershed maps, pilot lake management plans, a Data Assessment Manual, and a series of articles on land-use impacts to water quality. It is also available in hard copy for $25 (including shipping) from the MLA office at lakes@mnlakes.org or call 800-515-5253. It is also available in pdf format.
For questions about the report, contact George Orning, Sustainable Lakes Project Director at (612) 625-0081 or ornin002@tc.umn.edu, or Paula West, MLA Excutive Director, at pwest@mnlakes.org or 218-824-5565.
The workbook is posted in PDF format which requires Adobe Reader to read. The software is easy to install and use.
