Why Zack Woods Pond has no grade

Zack Woods Pond has monitoring on record from two stations, but only water clarity was measured. LakeQuality’s A–F letter uses total phosphorus, total nitrogen, chlorophyll-a, and turbidity against EPA National Lakes Assessment condition classes. With none of those grading measurements on record, Zack Woods Pond is Not Rated — not an F. Its 9.8-foot median from 64 readings collected 2020–2024 is still shown as clarity, but clarity alone cannot earn a letter.

Not Rated is EPA Integrated Reporting Category 3 — insufficient information. Everything below that has been measured is still reported on this page.

Sampling is run by VT DEC and volunteer programs, and published through the EPA Water Quality Portal. Read the full grading methodology.

Zack Woods Pond is a 620-acre lake in Lamoille County, Vermont with an estimated average depth of about 23 feet.
