Mission
We are the voice for Owasco Lake and the Watershed, and will actively engage in an ongoing process for coordinating, documenting, and tracking all of the strategies and activities that are designed to restore our watershed and improve water quality for both drinking and full recreational use of Owasco Lake and its watershed.
We work to protect Owasco Lake by:
- Monitoring water quality in the lake and surrounding streams and assisting partners with mitigation projects
- Actively seeking financial support to fund critical programs and projects
- Providing outreach to the community so people know that their everyday actions can help protect the lake
