Minor watershed number(s): 28033
The project area is the Lake Ballantyne lakeshed of minor watershed 28033 located within the Middle Minnesota River Major Watershed.
The Lake Ballantyne project was completed throught the MPCA Lake Assessment Program (LAP) in 1994. A LAP report includes general information about a lake's trophic status, factors affecting nutrient input to the lake (such as land cover/land use or point source pollution potential), fisheries health, water quality, historical trend analysis and watershed assessment modeling.

Watershed Assessment
Data Summary |
Lake Ballantyne - Lake Assessment Project (LAP) includes data from a watershed assessment which uses the Minnesota Lake Eutrophication Analysis Procedure (MINLEAP) model to assess changes in the quality of the lake resulting from altered nutrient inputs or altered flow. The model incorporates water quality, point source pollution potential, land cover/land use, inflow and outflow data in the assessment. |
