Former Project Manager:

In 2008 the Fremont Area Community Foundation funded a proposal for The Fremont Lake Association and the City of Fremont to work with the Annis Water Resources Institute (AWRI) of Grand Valley State University to conduct a general assessment of water quality conditions in Fremont Lake and its connecting waterways.

The goal of this project was to conduct a general assessment of water quality conditions in Fremont Lake and its connecting waterways. The following tasks were completed as part of this project:

• Updated land use/land cover map for the Fremont Lake Watershed;

• Sample site selection;

• Sample nutrients at each study site;

• Characterization of th phytoplankton and macrophyte communities;

• Model pollutant loads in the Fremont Lake Watershed; and

• Education of watershed stakeholders.

The information generated by this project can provide a baseline snapshot of the current conditions in the Fremont Lake Watershed, which will serve as a basis for future decision-making.
