The proposed alum treatment will reduce internal phosphorus loading by 527 lb/yr and ensure Forest Lake remains below the state standard of 40 ?g/L summer average phosphorus concentration. Forest Lake is not listed as impaired for nutrients, but summertime phosphorus readings occasionally exceed state standards, meaning this lake is at great risk of becoming impaired. CLFLWD sets its own goal for Forest Lake to achieve and maintain a summertime average phosphorus concentration of 30 ?g/L (i.e., even lower than the state standard).

The focus of this project will be on protection efforts to maintain or improve the water quality of Forest Lake by reducing phosphorus loads to the lake, especially from storm water. The two main objectives of this project are to compile and make minor updates to a large body of diagnostic work that already exists for Forest Lake, and to develop a comprehensive, site-specific implementation plan for best management practices (BMPs).

This project will develop an enhanced street sweeping plan for the City of Forest Lake that optimizes phosphorus removal from increasing sweeping frequency with the cost of additional sweeps. In addition, this project will identify road-specific street sweeping timing and frequency, quantify expected phosphorus load reductions, itemize costs of enhanced street sweeping, and recommend funding options to the City of Forest Lake.
