Abstract

This Water Quality Improvement Plan (WQIP) has two purposes. First, it is a resource to be used by watershed planners, water quality action groups, individual citizens, and local and state government staff. It serves as a guide to help these groups understand and identify the cause of Lake of Three Fires water quality problems and to guide locally driven water quality improvements in the lake. The problem to be addressed in this plan is the high concentrations of bacteria that have been measured at the beach. Secondly, this report satisfies the Federal Clean Water Act obligation to establish a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for waterbodies on the 303(d) impaired waters list.
