<br />This section summarizes the current Grass Lake Water Management Organization (GLWMO) <br />water body classification system and proposes a water body classification system for <br />discussion and adoption by the WMO. This section also presents guidelines to use for <br />determining which water bodies should be managed by the WMO. <br />arrant star lassiact~n yst <br />The current (1986) Grass Lake WMO plan classifies water bodies into three groups, based <br />primarily on their level of use. The current classification system does not assign any water <br />quality standards to these groups. The characteristics of each group are presented below, and <br />water bodies are assigned to each group, as shown in the current GLWMO plan. <br />Group 1: Lakes with a high level and variety of uses; adequate size to support many <br />varied uses; historic demonstrated concern for lake quality; an active property association; <br />weed control program; and typical uses include swimming, boating, and fishing. <br />Snail Lake <br />Lake Wabasso <br />Lake Owasso <br />Group 2: Lakes with a moderate level of use and some variety; historic concern for lake <br />quality; moderately active property association; important in maintaining downstream water <br />quality and in controlling runoff rates; activities may include fishing and small boating. <br />Lake Judy <br />Lake Emily <br />Shoreview Lake <br />Bennett Lake <br />Willow Pond <br />Grass_lake_class_system.doc Page 1 09/27/99 <br />
