An Army Corps of Engineers report from 2001 finds atrazine, used on corn, can raise in Clinton Lake during spring runoff and May to June, sometimes exceeding EPA safety standards. Experts note the standard is conservative, while City of Lawrence officials strive to keep drinking water below half a part per billion, using carbon-activated treatment and facing higher costs.

Officials stress balanced nutrient management and farming practices to protect the lake’s health and public water supply.
