Community and Education Resources - Water Quality and Onondaga Lake Community and Education Resources - Water Quality and Onondaga Lake

In 2000, Onondaga County deployed an automated monitoring buoy into Onondaga Lake at South Deep Station, the Lake's primary water sampling site. This buoy provided the County with continuous monitoring of the Lake's water quality to through 2012. In an effort to reduce redundancy and encourage high-quality data sharing for our community, the Onondaga Lake water quality data has been provided since 2012 from a monitoring buoy maintained by the Upstate Freshwater Institute (UFI), as part of Honeywell’s nitrate addition pilot project. Measurements from this buoy support assessment of compliance with water quality standards and provide data on important physical, chemical, and biological processes in Onondaga Lake.
