For our first group meeting, we met and discussed the causes of the excess phosphorous. The main pollution causes we found that were agriculture related where discharges from farmsteads & production areas, poorly managed crop land, and poorly managed pastures. There may be more reasons for the phosphorous pollution so the search continues. The image shows phosphorous pollution in different sections of the lake. So the next step is to find reasons for the pollution in those areas.
