We are the citizens organization dedicated to the protection and restoration of Brome Lake and its watershed.
Tributary water quality monitoring
Since 2008, CLB has been monitoring the water quality of lake Brome's six most important tributaries of the lake, namely the Quilliams, McLaughlin, Argyll, Cold, Pearson, and Inverness streams (Map 1). Among the municipalities in the watershed, only the city of Lac-Brome is currently participating in the financing of this project.
Flow modeling by the neighboring basins method
Nutrient supply problems affecting primary productivity have caused episodes of the proliferation of cyanobacteria blooms in Brome Lake for several decades. This finding motivates residents and shoreline residents and challenges taxpayers in the municipalities of the watershed to take action to slow down and ultimately curb the aging of the body of water. Awareness seems to settle in the minds of users. The efforts of Conservation Lac Brome, the city of Lac Brome, and other surrounding municipalities, governments, and citizens demonstrate an undeniable desire to preserve and conserve water quality.
