Lake water quality remains high despite septic concerns
Officials report algae growth linked to sewer drainfields in Bottle Bay and Garfield Bay but note Panhandle Health lacks power to enforce changes. Regulators require updates for new or failed systems, with grandfather clauses shielding many residents. Some districts exist but lack funding for new sewer systems. Health rules set 100 feet minimum from shore, though some fields sit closer. Overall lake water quality remains generally excellent.
