Lake Watershed Action Plans
What is a Lake Watershed Action Plan? An LWAP is an assessment and planning tool that identifies the greatest stressors to water quality, wildlife habitat, and the overall health of the lake ecosystem. The process evaluates the shoreland, tributaries, drainage ditches, wetlands, hydrologically connected roads, and working landscapes to create a priority list of issues and projects. The result is a planning guide that prioritizes restoration and protection actions for the watershed.
Lake Watershed Action Plans Data Libraries are digital libraries with sources of relevant information such as shoreland parcels, lidar topography, land use mapping, water quality data, relevant GIS layers, and town infrastructure information.
