Vision and Values Key to  Successful Lake Planning

The Mississippi Lake Plan (MLP) is a project to identify, protect and restore the natural, physical and social integrity of the Mississippi Lake’s ecosystem.

The lake plan began in 2011, with volunteer members in partnership with Mississippi Lakes Association, Centre for Sustainable Watersheds and Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority and support from the Towns of Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills, and Beckwith and Drummond-North Elmsley Townships.

To date many of the steps have been completed to get the lake plan closer to the implementation stage. Click the following links for MLP updates, reports, and outreach information.
