Water Quality Testing
Wall Lake has excellent water quality. There are three main reasons for this.
-
Wetlands filter out acid and sediment from incoming bog water.
-
Wall Lake has had a sewer system since the early 1990's.
-
Wall Lake residents have paid for professional weed control for many years.​​​
Maintaining the water quality in our lake is an important and ongoing task. In addition to the services provided by Professional Lake Management, our association also performs various water quality testing throughout the year and coordinates data gathering using MiCorps' Cooperative Lake Monitoring protocols and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality.​ The MiCorps' data goes into a database that allows us to track results over time and compare Wall Lake to other lakes. Additionally, we work closely with the Pierce Cedar Creek Institute to study the long-term effects of development in and around the Cedar Creek
watershed of which our lake is an important part.
Reports for 2024 will be posted as soon as they're available. Prior reports can be requested from the (GWLA) association.
