Abstract
The District of Muskoka is well known for being a part of Ontario's cottage country with over 650 freshwater lakes found within the upper-tier municipal boundaries. As shoreline development pressures increase, so does the potential for impacts on the water quality of inland lakes. As a result, this research report seeks to examine the current land use policies related to inland lake water quality in the area, how these policies are implemented, and what limitations exist to their implementation and effectiveness.
