The municipality has been looking at various measures to improve the quality of East St. Paul ponds. In 2019, the RM undertook a detailed investigation on the water quality in the ponds, what factors influence that quality, and how climate change may influence the ponds in the future. One of the key results is that individual actions can have a big impact on the state of the ponds.
This section of our website provides information on what measures individual property owners can take, what measures the RM is investigating, and what we have learned as well as summaries of the Open Houses that have been held.
