Abstract

One site on Kennisis Lake and one site on Johnson Lake were sampled in order to assist in determining the health of Kennisis Lake. The Johnson Lake site was used as a reference as Johnson Lake has very little development compared to Kennisis Lake. The results of the project are inconclusive. More sites on Kennisis Lake need to be sampled in order to gain a better understanding of the health of the lake as a whole. Additional years of sampling are also required in order to ensure natural variability between and within sites can be accounted for.
