Lake Water Quality Monitoring in Washington State
Entry ID:
wa_de_lakewaterquality
Summary
Abstract:
Ecology has monitored rivers and streams since before 1959 and, due
largely to federal grants, were able to monitor lakes from 1989 through 1999. During that period, they collected data from more than 180 lakes, with help from about 250 volunteers. In 2000, however, they were unable to obtain sufficient funding and had to discontinue the full program. Information was obtained from http://www.ecy.wa.gov/ecyhome.html. Geographic Coverage

Lake Monitoring ended in 2000. The volunteer monitoring component
continued an additional year in 2001, but has now ended. We still file data from volunteers who have chosen to continue, but we no longer recruit new volunteers or meet with current volunteers. Nor are we able to assess the data. At present, there is no state-wide monitoring or assessment of lake water quality.
