Minor watershed number(s): 26016, 26017, 26018, 26019, 26021, 26022, 26023, 26024, 26103, 26109
The project area is the Gilchrist Lake lakeshed which includes all or portions of the following minor watersheds: 26016, 26017, 26018, 26019, 26021, 26022, 26023, 26024, 26103 and 26109. These minor watersheds are located in the Chippewa River Major Watershed.
The Gilchrist Lake project was completed through the MPCA - Lake Assessment Program (LAP) in 1992. A LAP report includes general information about a lake's trophic status, factors (such as land cover/land use or point source pollution potential) affecting nutrient input to the lake, fisheries health, water quality, historical trend analysis, and watershed assessment modeling.

Surface Water Quality Monitoring
| Data Summary |
Gilchrist Lake - Lake Assessment Project (LAP) includes surface water quality data collected five times from two in-lake sites during the spring and summer of 1992. Analysis included the following parameters: nutrients (total phosphorus, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, nitrate/nitrite-nitrogen), color, solids, pH, conductivity, alkalinity, turbidity, chlorophyll, temperature, dissolved oxygen profile, and secchi disk readings. |
