Owasco Watershed Lake Association
WE ARE OWLA (Owasco Watershed Lake Association!)
Owasco Lake provides the residents of Auburn, Cayuga County, and surrounding communities with drinking water, recreation, and wildlife habitat. For many, Owasco Lake is a place to commune with nature.
Protecting Owasco Lake is essential to the maintenance of our community character and the improvement of our economic future. The Owasco Watershed Lake Association recognizes this and has joined together to draw attention to the value and importance of Owasco Lake.
The Watershed
Owasco Lake has a 208sq mile watershed. What happens in the ‘shed ends up in the lake!
