| Abstract | The report is Vol. 5 of a series of 7 reports summarizing Illinois EPA's 1989 Illinois Volunteer Lake Monitoring Program (VLMP). It provides a program overview, summary of 1989 VLMP lakes in East-Central Illinois volunteer participation and a ranking of lakes on a regional basis. Thirty-five volunteers recorded total depth, Secchi disc transparency, and field observations for 28 lakes in East-Central Illinois between May and October, 1989. Average transparencies ranged from 9-68 inches. Volunteer water quality samples were collected at 7 lakes once every month from May thru October and ambient lake data, collected by IEPA staff, is presented for seven lakes. |
