SUMMARY:Webinar: Successful Lake Management & The Feasibility of Alum to Improve Water Quality
DESCRIPTION:Registration: \nJoin HAB Aquatic Solutions\, Lake County Health Department and the Illinois Lakes Management Association for an informative webinar on water quality. This event is FREE but requires registration. \nPlease register for the webinar on Eventbrite. \nEvent Description: \nPoor water quality in lakes has many symptoms and most of them are caused by having too much algae in your lake. Such symptoms include scums\, low clarity\, odors\, algal toxins\, low oxygen levels\, poor fishing\, fish kills and reduced recreational and property values. What’s the cause of nuisance levels of algae? Too much phosphorus (P). Phosphorus is generally the nutrient that controls algal growth in lakes and lower amounts of P lead to lower amounts of algae and associated poor water quality symptoms. That’s why the main focus of appropriate and successful lake management is directed at P management. So\, how is P in your lake best reduced and controlled? Well\, that really depends on where is the P coming from. Too often we want to rush into trying a solution\, while skipping the mundane steps of determining the sources and amounts of P entering the lake. This valuable diagnostic information is needed to design the appropriate solution (or solutions) and ensuring that the management plan will work. You are probably most familiar with P sources that originate from outside of the lake (external sources from the watershed) but recycling of P that has accumulated in the lakebed (internal sources) can be a primary and overlooked source. The solutions for these categories of sources are usually quite different and specific. For example\, watershed best management practices are appropriate for external sources\, while addressing lakebed P recycling with inactivants such as alum are best for internal sources. \nPlease join us for a webinar discussion why P management is important for your lake\, with specific topics to include:\n1) A successful approach to lake management (The 7 Key Steps)\n2) Impacts of P on water quality and property values\n3) Determining external vs. internal P sources\n4) Cost-effect solutions\n5) Use of alum to improve water quality when sediment P recycling is high \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:The History and Evolution of the Courtesy Boat Inspection Program
DESCRIPTION:For more than 20 years the Courtesy Boat Inspection (CBI) program has helped protect our lakes from the spread of invasive aquatic plants. Learn about the history of this program and how it has grown and evolved over time. We will also focus on the cost of the program and how vitally important it is to keep it going strong. New and current infestations\, as well as at risk lakes\, will be explored. \nSpeakers \nMary Jewett \n\n\n\nCoutesy Boat Inspection Program Director @Lakes Environmental Association\nMary Jewett has worked in a variety of roles at the Lakes Environmental Association for over a decade. She is currently LEA’s CBI director as well as the coordinator for the DEP’s CBI and Plant Grant program. Mary also conducts boat inspection trainings for BASS clubs and CBI groups throughout Maine. In the winter months Mary focuses on teaching young people at local schools about protecting our lakes and watersheds. Mary graduated from Unity College in Maine with a degree in Ecology and has been working on protecting our natural resources over since.

SUMMARY:What Kind of Lake Is That? Putting Maine’s Lakes Into Categories for Better Water Quality Assessments and Protections
DESCRIPTION:Maine has thousands of lakes\, and all are unique. However\, many lakes share traits that help lake managers\, watershed organizations\, and researchers compare and evaluate them. This is especially important for lake assessments\, which often compare a lake’s condition to the condition of reference lakes from minimally-disturbed watersheds. By determining which natural attributes of lakes and their watersheds have the strongest influence on lake condition\, we can place lakes into categories that define what the conditions of certain types of lakes should be. These categories will help managers place lake data in the proper context for better evaluation and planning. This talk will be about how lake types were developed for Maine lakes\, and how these types may be applied to lake assessment and protection. \nSpeakers \nJeremy Deeds \n\n\n\nAquatic Ecologist @Maine Department of Environmental Protection\nJeremy Deeds has been an aquatic ecologist for the Lakes Assessment Section of the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) since 2014. He has worked on water quality projects in the northeast U.S. over the past 20 years allowing him to build relationships and share research ideas with other experts. A native Mainer\, Jeremy grew up fishing and boating on the lakes of Maine and feels fortunate to work on studying and helping to protect them. At DEP\, he studies various aspects of Maine lakes\, including the measurement of changes in water quality over time and the role of shoreland development in shallow-water habitat quality. He lives in Topsham with his family\, who all enjoy getting out on the water as much as possible.

SUMMARY:Winter Lake Monitoring: Life and Limnology Under the Ice
DESCRIPTION:Are lakes as quiet and lifeless when frozen over as they seem? Join Lakes Environmental Association Research Director Ben Peierls to find out how the traditional view of wintertime lake dormancy is being revised. He will talk about recent winter research\, including work at LEA\, that has given us a new perspective on annual lake cycles\, even as climate warming threatens whether lakes ice over at all. Enjoy a multimedia look at life and water quality under the ice and how we go about measuring that. \nSpeaker \nDr. Ben Peierls \n\n\n\nResearch Director @Lakes Environmental Association\nDr. Ben Peierls\, Maine Lake Science Center research director\, grew up on Long Island\, New York and spent many summers visiting family at Sand Pond in Denmark.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Understanding and Managing Internal Phosphorus Loading in Lakes
DESCRIPTION:Phosphorus (P) loading from the watershed is a problem for many lakes\, but not just during the year it enters. Long-term inputs accumulate in the sediments under lakes and can be recycled by multiple processes. These legacy P loads can be the dominant source during summer and are linked to the increasing frequency and severity of cyanobacteria blooms. Control of internal loading is a matter of removing the sediment or keeping the P in it from being released\, with several options available. This webinar will explore internal P loading\, its link to cyanobacteria blooms\, and methods to reduce internal P loading. \nPresenters:\nAlan Steinman\, Ph.D.\, Grand Valley State University\, Michigan\nKen Wagner\, Ph.D.\,  Water Resource Services\, Massachusetts\nMiquel Lurling\, Ph.D.\, Wageningen University\, The Netherlands \nEach presentation will be about 20 minutes in length\, the remainder of the time will be for discussion and questions. \nPlease register for Understanding and Managing Internal Phosphorus Loading in Lakes on Sep 30\, 2020 10:30 AM EDT at:\nhttps://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/9113236565325676304 \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Wildfires and Resulting Impacts to Water Bodies Used as Drinking Water Sources
DESCRIPTION:The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Research and Development and Office of Water invite you to a free webinar Small Systems Monthly Webinar Series.\nDetritus material in forest watersheds is the major terrestrial source of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and disinfection byproduct (DBP) precursors in water bodies used as drinking water sources and is also a fuel that can ignite wildfires. In these watersheds\, hot temperatures and dry conditions increase the likelihood of high-severity wildfires. To help reduce this risk\, low-severity prescribed burning is used as a forest management practice to reduce fuel loads from forest floor detritus material. In either high- or low-severity fires\, DOM exported to source waters from managed watersheds is likely to have different characteristics and treatability compared to DOM exported from unburned watersheds. These potential source water quality changes may require that drinking water utilities adapt their treatment processes to account for these changes. Modeling and decision support tools can help explore treatability and adaptation strategies for these impacted water systems. \nWildfire Impacts on Drinking Water Quality\nThis presentation will provide information on the impacts of high- and low-severity wildfires on dissolved organic matter concentrations in water bodies used as drinking water sources and DBP formation during treatment. \nDecision Support for Drinking Water Utilities Impacted by Wildfire\nThis presentation will discuss watersheds’ response to post-fire sedimentation and will provide information on how water utilities can modify treatment plant operations to avoid disinfection byproducts. The 2012 High Park fire in Fort Collins\, Colorado will be used as a real-world example to demonstrate the methods. \nWho should attend? \nState primacy agencies\, Tribes\, community planners\, technical assistance providers\, academia\, and water systems interested in issues facing community water systems and solutions to help solve them.

SUMMARY:ILMS Webinar: The Importance of Oxbow Lakes with TNC
DESCRIPTION:This month’s ILMS webinar will cover the importance of Oxbow Lakes and some work done by the Nature Conservancy. Oxbow lakes are an important habitat type found along Indiana’s major rivers in southwest Indiana. They are an integral part of a river’s ecology. Many species of riverine fish use oxbows to reproduce or rear young.  Oxbow lakes are also home to many species of rare plants\, and they provide wintering and nesting habitat for waterfowl and songbirds.   \nDespite the ecological importance of oxbow lakes\, little is known about their overall health. As a result\, there have been no conservation strategies developed around this important habitat-type in Indiana.  Oxbow lakes face many threats\, including levees\, ditching\, and field tiling within the lake basins\, agricultural runoff\, and fragmentation of surrounding woodlands.  \nTo establish a baseline of data and develop conservation strategies around these lakes\, we completed an initial ranking process via GIS\, followed by an on-the-ground sampling effort in 2017 including monthly water sampling and in 2018 fish sampling.TNC will share our research results to date and discuss the challenges of developing a conservation strategy for a dynamic and large-scale habitat like oxbow lakes along the lower Wabash River. \nOur speaker this month will be Brad Smith from the Nature Conservancy of Indiana. Brad started his career in conservation working in the Hoosier National Forest on migratory songbirds as an undergraduate at Indiana University. He worked throughout parts of the US and Canada before landing in Southwest Florida working on Sanibel Island doing wetland restoration and land management. He began working for The Nature Conservancy in 2010 as the Director of Land Management for the New Jersey chapter before transferring\, in 2013\, to his current position as the Lower Wabash and Wetlands Program Director for Indiana. His efforts are focused on improving water quality\, expanding floodplain protection\, and improving habitat for migratory birds. \nThis webinar is part of an on-going ILMS webinar series\, new webinars to be held the third Wednesday of every month at noon. Attendance for this and future webinars is free for ILMS members\, and $10 for non-members. If you would like to attend multiple webinars\, we welcome you to become a member. Membership benefits include special events\, access to the members-only web page\, including recordings of our webinar series\, and a discounted annual conference membership. \n  \nThis month’s ILMS webinar is being sponsored by: \n \nhttps://www.aquaticweedcontrol.com/\n\n \nhttps://www.davey.com/
