Pittsburg County Lake Quality

Oklahoma, 12 lakes, measured by Oklahoma DEQ

Pittsburg County holds 12 monitored lakes. With a sample that small the county-level summary describes those specific waters, not necessarily every water body in the county. The 12 monitored lakes in Pittsburg County carry whatever clarity, phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a readings Oklahoma DEQ has published, shown as reported.

Most of the county's monitored lakes are shallow, under 50 feet, which means wind keeps the water column mixed all summer and sediment-bound phosphorus releases back into the surface layer whenever the bottom is disturbed.
