Abstract
The report is Vol. V of a series of 7 reports summarizing Illinois EPA's 1988 Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program (VLMP). It provides a program overview, summary of 1988 VLMP lakes in East-Central Illinois volunteer participation and a ranking of lakes on a regional basis. Fifty-one volunteers recorded total depth, Secchi disc transparency, and field observations for 27 lakes in East-Central Illinois between May and October, 1988. Average transparencies ranged from 13-68 inches. Volunteer water quality samples were collected at 11 lakes once every month from May thru October and ambient lake data, collected by IEPA staff, is presented for five lakes.
