Welcome to the Hauser Lake Watershed Coalition Website!
 

In January I was elected the new President of the Coalition and I would like to thank the members of the Coalition for this vote of confidence.  I would also like to thank John Wallis for the time, energy and efforts extended in directing the Coalition to the following accomplishments during his terms as President:

  • Development of the Hauser Lake*A*Syst Program;

  • Development, Construction and Operation of Idaho's first Eurasian Milfoil Rinse Station;

  • Regular roadside cleanups and the annual Fall Rake-A-Lake events;

  • The first, second, third and fourth Hauser Lake Poker Runs;

  • Return of the Spring Fun Run as a HLWC event; and

  • Extensive water quality testing and monitoring.

The information and links provided in this website are intended to help residents within the Watershed minimize their impact on the water quality of Hauser Lake and the surrounding watershed.  They can, however, be used to develop best management practices to protect water quality in most any residential or commercial setting.  Clean water is a natural resource that benefits everyone.


The Coalition's main goal for the last several years has been to determine the health of Hauser Lake and to protect it from further degradation.  In addition to continuing that work, including the above programs and events initiated and sponsored by the Coalition under John's leadership, my main goal for the coming year is to identify, develop and find funding for a project that will improve the water quality of Hauser Lake.

 

To do that and continue our current programs and events, we could use a helping hand.  So I ask you to come to a meeting - meet your neighbors; learn about the current conditions of the lake and the threats from new invasive species; hear about and give us your ideas on projects we could undertake to further protect and improve the lake.  We are a small but fun group, so please join us for a meeting or activity.  All helping hands are welcome.
