La Rivière-du-Nord County Lake Quality
Québec, 17 lakes, measured by MELCCFP
The county-level average smooths over real differences — a single agricultural watershed near the southwest corner can pull the average down even if the rest of the county runs clean. The 17 monitored lakes in La Rivière-du-Nord County carry whatever clarity, phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a readings MELCCFP 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.
