Description
Fox Lake was sampled during the summer of 1991 as part of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's (MPCA) Lake Assessment Program. Data collected during the study showed that in terms of total phosphorus, chlorophyll and Secchi disk transparency, the water quality of Fox Lake is poorer than similar lakes in the ecoregion. The mean summer concentrations of total phosphorus and chlorophyll were 102 and 104 ug/1 respectively and the mean Secchi disk transparency was 3. 85 feet. Based on these water quality values Fox Lake would be considered eutrophic to hypereutrophic.
