2 Volunteers Keeping A Watchful Eye on the Health of Maine Lakes and Ponds for 39 Years!
3 VLMP is the Largest Collector and Provider of Lake Data in the State of Maine
4 volunteers collected water quality data from 440 Maine lakes
5
6 Two Questions: 1. What attribute/characteristic of Maine s lakes and ponds do you value most? 2. What do you consider to be the greatest threat to the health of Maine s lakes?
7 User Perception Survey Response CLEAR WATER
8 Two Major Threats to Clear Water Algae Invasive Plants
9 National Lakes Assessment 1,028 Lakes Studied in 2007
10 Obvious Degraded Shoreline Habitat
11
12 Polluted Stormwater Runoff From Watershed Development
13 Watersheds and Land Use
14 A lake watershed is part of the lake ecosystem! The natural characteristics of a lake are directly influenced by the watershed 90% of protecting/managing a lake involves protecting/managing the watershed
15 It All Adds Up!
16 How Impervious Surfaces Change the Water Budget Natural Cover Developed Land % Impervious Surface Runoff Evaporation 40% 30% 10% Infiltration 50% 55% 15%
17 Every Time it Rains: Polluted Stormwater Runoff!
18 Trivia: What is the largest pollutant in the world?
19 Lakes are Highly Sensitive to the Nutrient Phosphorus Soil erosion Fertilizers Animal waste Septic systems Decaying organic matter Stormwater runoff is the transport vehicle
20 Increasing Algal Growth is Typically Cumulative, and May Take Years to Document
21 Effect of Watershed Development on Lake Water Quality Increase in phosphorus in stormwater => Increase in phosphorus levels in the lake => Increase in the growth of algae => Declining water clarity (Transparency) => Dissolved oxygen loss over time => Negative impact to fishery, changes in biodiversity and overall ecological degradation
22
23 Range Ponds Max Depth (ft) Average Depth (ft Surface area in acres Flushing Rate/year Direct Watershed area (sq. mi.) Lower Middle Upper
24 Turnover and Thermal Stratification
25 Water Quality Overview (Historical Averages) Lower Middle Upper Clarity (M) Phosphorus (ppb) Chlorophyll (ppb) Color (SPU) Dissolved Oxygen Loss Algae Bloom potential Overall Moderate depletion Low- Moderate Depletion Moderate depletion Moderate Low Moderate Above average Above average Above average
26 Weather Influences Temperature Wind Precipitation Sunlight
27 Transparency (clarity) of Maine s Lakes, Compared to Their Historical Averages 61.6% 30% 8.4% Less Clear No Change More Clear Lakes Lakes
28 Transparency of Maine Lakes
29 Thank You Volunteer Water Quality Monitors! Upper Range: Matthew Brettler; Anne Gagne Middle Range: Barry Kutzen; C.L Townsend Jr. Lower Range: John Crouch; Poppy Connor-Crouch
30 Vegetated Buffers Protect Lakes from Runoff and Phosphorus
31 Invasive Aquatic Plants (and Animals!)
32 VLMP Center for Invasive Aquatic Plants Seven Years Old!
33 Training Fifteen Invasive Plant Patrol (IPP) workshops in introductory workshops, 1 survey methods workshop 2 abbreviated training sessions 1 manual control workshop Spanned the state, from Acton to Frenchville
34 Trained Eyes
35 Variable Milfoil Control in the Range Ponds Early detection Consistent, effective, mapping and removal of milfoil for several years Many hundreds of hours of volunteer effort 2010 survey: No Milfoil has been found Kudos to Bob and Gloria Limoges, and supporting volunteers!
36 VLMP Invasive Plant Patroller Dick Butterfield
37 Public involvement in this issue is essential!
38 We are making a difference!
39 Invasive aquatic plants Brazilian elodea Fanwort Hydrilla European frogbit European naiad Parrot feather Eurasian water-milfoil Variable water-milfoil Water chestnut Yellow floating heart Curly leaf pondweed
40 Northern Pike Rusty Crayfish Invasive Fauna Zebra & Quagga Mussels Chinese Mystery Snail Chinese Mitten Crab Asiatic Clam Spiny Water Flea
41 Invasive Algae Starry Stonewort Didymo (Rock Snot)
42 Native Plants Benefit Maine s Lakes and Ponds Native plants protect water quality, provide diversity and beauty, occupy areas of the lake otherwise available to invaders
43 Vermont s Experience
44 Zebra Mussel Infestations Source: USGS 2008
45 Primary Vector
46 32 Known Infestations in Maine (as of June 2010)
47 Variable Water-milfoil Range Pond photo 26 Maine Waterbodies Androscoggin, Cumberland, Kennebec, Oxford & York Counties (2 infested with a variable milfoil hybrid)
48 Eurasian Water-milfoil Pleasant Hill Pond, Scarborough CUMBERLAND CO Salmon Lake, Belgrade KENNEBEC COUNTY
49 Hydrilla: Pickerel Pond in Limerick and Damariscotta Lake
50 Curly Leaf Pondweed West Pond, Parsonsfield, YORK CO
51 European Naiad Legion Pond, Kittery, YORK CO
52 Thank you for joining us in the effort to protect Maine lakes from the threat of aquatic invaders!
