In recent years, increased stormwater contamination and point source discharges have contributed increasingly high levels of bacteria and nutrients that threaten the health and beauty of the Falls Lake State Recreation Area and Water Supply Reservoir. Today, the Lake is listed as “impaired,” a status that requires the State to take certain actions to improve the condition of the water.

Recently, the state Division of Water Quality asked for another two-and-a-half-year extension to delay any action to clean up this vital water supply. This extension should not be granted, and measures must be taken to protect and clean up Falls Lake. We mustn’t delay this process any longer as the longer we wait, the more sickly Falls Lake and surrounding waters get, and the more costly this process will be.

Send the email below to your legislators asking them to clean up Falls Lake without delay!
