Funding Sought for Water Quality Study on Lake of the Woods

The International Rainy-Lake of the Woods Watershed Board is hoping to
secure funding for more water quality research.

The Board is submitting a draft plan of study this week to the
International Joint Commission.

Kelly Saunders says they held a workshop last month to identify some of the key
issues.

Saunders says algae blooms, invasive species and climate change have are just
some of the issues that will be focused on.
