For more information on area water quality, please click here for the Muskoka - Parry Sound Health Unit Water Quality Page. The Lake Partner ProgramMcKellar Lake and Grey Owl Lake are taking part in the Lake Partner program of the Ministry of the Environment. In that program, water clarity readings are taken and provided to the Ministry twice a year. In addition, one water sample is provided to the Ministry early in the year, after the ice thaws. The results indicate that both lakes are the same as about half of the lakes in the province. The Secchi Disc and Phosphorus readings indicate a Mesotrophic lake condition (moderately enriched with some nutrients) - 50% of Ontario's reporting lakes are in this range. Grey Owl Lake testing is conducted by Ron Jones. McKellar Lake will continue to be tested by Gord Kerr. |
