Our two water quality experts, Michelle Keil and Carol Jarzyna provide water quality testing during the warmer months to keep our lakes in compliance with the Wisconsin DNR lake water quality program for Lost Land and Teal Lakes.
The Citizen Lake Monitoring Network, the core of the Wisconsin Lakes Partnership, creates a bond between over 1,000 citizen volunteers statewide and the DNR. Our goals are to collect high quality data, to educate and empower volunteers and to share this data and knowledge.
Our Lake volunteers measure water clarity, using the Secchi Disk method, as an indicator of water quality for Teal and Lost Land Lakes. Volunteers also collect chemistry, temperature and dissolved oxygen data, as well as monitor for the first appearance of aquatic invasive species near boat landings, other access points, or along the shoreline.
