Miscellaneous Monitoring Associated with Lakes
Project Number: 9KB26
Project Chief: William J. Rose
Project Topics: Statewide
Cooperators: City of Muskego, Little Muskego Lake Management District, Wind Lake Management District, Town of Rice Lake
Period of Project: October 1998–Continuing
The Lake Studies team provides scientifically-based information to determine the effective management actions to protect or restore lakes.
Problem
Monitoring miscellaneous, single hydrologic aspects of lakes is needed, but does not warrant establishing separate projects or subprojects. This monitoring is typically narrow in scope, such as flow or loading from a single lake tributary or lake stage, and is usually a prelude to, or follow-up from, a more comprehensive lake study.
Objectives
The objective is to collect lake stage, streamflow, stream-water quality, and constituent load data as needed. These lake-related monitoring efforts will be managed and financially tracked in this project.
Approach
Monitoring that fits into this subproject will be done using appropriate standard USGS practices.
