We surveyed every foot of Burt Lake’s shoreline
and the results are in. Some of the evidence shows improved “Lake friendly” conditions. But other measurements show there are still plenty of opportunities for property owners to improve

The shoreline survey summary and full report is available below.
Use your the special property ID number from your letter to find your property's condition. Or call Kevin Cronk, Research and Monitoring Coordinator, Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council, 231-347-1181 ext. 109
