Emmet County Lakes Restoration Initiative. Lakes Restoration Group in Emmet County Iowa We promote Lake Health above anything else, for instance aquatic life and water quality.

We are a group of individuals of Emmet County Iowa, that seek to preserve and save what little Lakes and Wetlands we have left after the massive draining effort of the early 1900s. We decided to start an Initiative to help push to restore our local remnant lakes, Lakes that have been neglected for many many years. With a healthy lake there are many benefits that include, general water clarity, greatly improved game fish populations, reduction of rough fish, increased waterfowl, increased aquatic wildlife, increased aquatic ecosystems, safer swimming water, clearer/healthier ice for winter sports, reduction of toxic algae blooms, easier fish management, and economic increase. There are a handful of remnant lakes left in Emmet County, including Eagle, 4 mile, 12 mile, Cheever, Burr Oak, High, Ingham, Cunningham, West Swan, Tuttle, and Iowa Lake. Of those Lakes, these are the Lakes that are of extremely poor condition; High, Ingham, Cunningham, West Swan, 12 Mile, Tuttle, and Iowa Lake. We want to eventually see all these lakes renovated for our children and their children.
