Ontario Lake Partner Program (LPP)

The Ontario Lake Partner Program (LPP) provides total phosphorus, chloride and calcium concentration data (as well as water clarity, when available) for hundreds of Ontario's inland lakes. The data are collected annually through volunteer monitoring efforts, known as community science. Engaging volunteers to take measurements and collect samples expands the geographic area monitored and fosters public interest in Ontario’s water quality and promotes lake stewardship. The Federation of Ontario Cottagers’ Associations (FOCA) has worked in partnership with the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks to collect this information.

Informations sur la collecte de données

Water samples were collected from the deepest location of each lake or lake basin using an integrated water sampler lowered and raised to a depth equivalent to the Secchi transparency depth. The water samples were filtered through an 80-µm mesh in the field and stored at 4°C until analysed. Analyses were performed at the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks’ Dorset Environmental Science Centre Water Chemistry laboratory following standard protocols and quality assurance procedures.
