Description | Moses Lake does not meet Washington’s surface water-quality standards for phosphorus levels. Excess phosphorus in the water can act like a fertilizer for algae and aquatic plants causing them to grow and reproduce at an abnormally fast rate. These plants become a problem when they interfere with the desired or accustomed uses of the lake.
