The Lake Lemon Conservancy District (LLCD) has entered into a lease agreement with the City of Bloomington Utilities Service Board (USB) to maintain Lake Lemon in such condition necessary to protect the lake’s water quality consistent with its potential use as a drinking water source.  LLCD also agreed to maintain the lake in such condition to meet all state and federal requirements for recreational waters and to maintain the quality of the water in the lake at least at its present level.

The LLCD has contracted with Indiana University’s School of Public & Environmental Affairs (SPEA) to evaluate the condition of Lake Lemon since 1997.  This report is the result of SPEA’s 2016 monitoring efforts.
