Did you see these two paddle boarders on Lake Mendota this week?
Summer’s off to a big start. We’ve had a lot of rain recently. If you want more information on lake levels, click here.
Our pilot programs in beach and citizen water quality monitoring continue to be successful. We are testing James Madison Beach Monday through Friday and we have citizen volunteers testing on the four major lakes. If you are interested in participating in this program, please contact us.
For you app-lovers out there, we suggest you get the free Lake Mendota Buoy app. It provides live data on wind speed and direction, water temperature, and other factors to consider when going out on the lakes. Available for iPhone and Android.
The Yahara Pride Farms certification program also continues to move forward. We are out on the farms working to prevent runoff to our lakes.
This Lake-O-Gram focuses on ways for you to get out on the lakes this summer.
