Protecting Pleasant Lake

Through good lake stewardship we can work together to preserve Pleasant Lake for generations.

Water Quality

Tracking Pleasant Lake's health through data analysis and trend interpretation.

Cyanobacteria

Recognize blooms, understand the risks, know how to report them quickly, and contribute to preventing them.

Watershed Conservation

Septic care, shoreline buffers, and daily choices that protect the watershed.

Our Mission

PLPA, founded in 1969, is dedicated to protecting Pleasant Lake and its watershed through research, monitoring water quality and wildlife, and educating and involving watershed residents as to their role in protecting the lake.

We monitor the lake, share educational resources, and partner with neighbors to reduce the risk of invasive species, reduce phosphorus, and prevent cyanobacteria blooms.
