Yearly Water Quality Summary
The Water Quality monitoring program is carried out during the open water season following the same monitoring and sampling plan used since its implementation in 2011. The prime program objective of this monitoring program remained unchanged which is to ensure compliance with Saskatchewan Surface Water Quality Objectives for Recreation and Aesthetics and for the protection of Aquatic Life. The secondary program objective is to gather baseline physical and chemical parameter data that can be used for comparisons over time to determine trends and to monitor any parameter changes. In addition to the funding provided by the District, generous monetary support was received from the Anglin Lake Cottage Owners Association and the Emma & Christopher Lakes Association.

2020 Water Quality Program Summary
Three sampling trips were made to Anglin, Christopher, and McPhee lakes to collect physical parameter data at sites located centrally on each of the lakes. Data collected at each site included water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, and transparency data (Secchi depth). In September, a water sample was collected at Anglin, Christopher, and McPhee Lakes which was analyzed by the Saskatchewan Research Council in Saskatoon.
2019 Water Quality Report Summary
Three sampling trips were made to Anglin, Christopher, and McPhee lakes to collect physical parameter data at sites located centrally on each of the lakes. At each of these sites a depth profile method was used to collect data on the following parameters in the water column: water temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, and transparency data (Secchi depth). In September, a water sample was collected at Anglin, Christopher, and McPhee Lakes which was analyzed by the Saskatchewan Research Council in Saskatoon.
