Patoka Lake Watershed

The Patoka Lake Watershed is the land surrounding the Lake that drains water into streams which drain into Patoka Lake. The Committee’s mission is to assess the quality of water in our streams, identify areas of greatest concern, and advise land users on erosion control and other management practices that will aid in reducing unhealthy run off into our water systems.
