Domestic Water Withdrawals From Lake Samish (Number of pages: 8) (Publication Size: 434KB)

| Author(s) | Arthur G. Larson | ||||
| Description | Lake Samish serves as the water supply for a majority of the residents living along its shores. Presently there are about 350 domestic water users withdrawing water from the lake. There are an additional 18 applications for water rights at this time, 16 for single domestic and 2 for multiple domestic. Because the Lake Sarnish area is served by sewer, much of the withdrawn water is exported from the watershed. There is a concern that this loss of water significantly impacts the fisheries resource of Friday Creek, the outflow of Lake Samish. Friday Creek, a naturally intermittent stream, often dries up in late summer. |
