The Nebagamon Lake Association, Inc.*
The Nebagamon Lake Association, Inc., has either been or is involved in the following projects and activities.
Lake Protection
The Association has done water clarity readings for many years. Recently, we got a grant from the Wisconsin DNR to also study water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, and levels of chemicals in the water. The results will help us determine whether actions need to be taken to protect the water.
We are a member of the Wisconsin Association of Lakes, so we receive pertinent information from them.
We received DNR grants to monitor the public boat launch area to help prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species.
We have been working for several years to eradicate purple loosestrife, a harmful invasive species, from the lake and near shore areas.

Education
We provide information to our members through our two yearly newsletters and with speakers at our annual meetings.
Through a DNR grant in 2005 we provided educational materials about good lake practices to all property owners on the lake, local builders/contractors, and local realtors.
We provide information to others in our community through articles in the Community Association Newsletter and by making information available at the Village Board Office.
