CLEAR Report on Lady's Island Lake: Discussion

2:00 am

Dr. Brendan O'Connor:

I was at Lady's Island Lake approximately six weeks ago and what struck me very forcibly was the smell. It is not great for tourists to come along and get this quite strong odour. It is hydrogen sulfide. There is also a visual impact. A lot of algae is washed up on the lakeshore, which is not visually impressive. These are two immediate issues I can point to and perhaps somebody else might like to make additional comments.
