•Many
shoreline systems were not designed to handle
current use
•New and replacement systems must comply with strict regulations
•Voluntary upgrades may improve lake water quality
Most often these
inefficiencies within the watershed arise because many shoreline systems were
not designed to handle the current use.
People built summer camps
built system for this amount of use, but are now staying for weeks, even
months at a time. And is I mentioned earlier, some residents are beginning to
stay year round.This increases the
amount of water going through the system and many were not designed for such
high volumes.
New and replacement systems
must comply with strict regulations that are designed to limit potential
contamination.
It is also evident that many
people in the community are voluntarily upgrading their systems which may
improve water quality.
