NewsNEW! Water Level Status Report
(11/14/2024) Click here... Water Quality on Wilson Pond (8/27/24) The water clarity measurements in Wilson Pond indicate that algal production has noticeably increased but as of today is not at a dense or severe algal bloom stage. Therefore, following DEP's guidance, it is not concentrated enough to be concerned about algal toxicity. Keep in mind we never advise people to drink untreated lake water. We will continue to monitor the water and let the public know if the situation changes. Reported by: Wendy Dennis, Limnologist Cobbossee Watershed District Invasive Aquatic Plant Patrol
