What the comparison covers
A grade on LakeQuality comes from EPA Water Quality Portal samples: phosphorus, nitrogen, chlorophyll-a and turbidity, measured against EPA National Lakes Assessment ecoregion classes. Secchi clarity is shown and is not scored. This page compares Marion-Sunset Harbor Lake only with neighbouring lakes in Floridathat carry a letter of their own, within 30 miles.

Where a driving distance is not published for a lake, the table says so instead of estimating one.
