TRIBUTARY SEDIMENT CONTROL RFQ

The PLA has issued a Request For Qualifications (RFQ) for Qualified Environmental Professionals to submit applications to us for the design of sediment control options for our major tributaries.  This is just another step to help reduce the amount of nutrients entering the lake and hopefully reduce the occurrence of cyanobacteria blooms.

CYANOBACTERIA WARNING REMAINS – AUGUST 28, 2024

Hi All,

After the very bad lake water this past weekend and multiple reports being sent in to NH DES, DES has decided not to resample this week and leave the warning as it is.  Not surprising as the lake was in bad shape this past weekend.

Having said that, the last couple of days has shown a very good clearing.  Much much better and with not a lot of rain forecasted, we hope it will remain good for the long weekend ahead.

But, as always, blooms can occur at any time and everyone must pay attention to how the water looks and make their own judgement on whether or not to go in.

Regards,

The PLA
