Dedicated to the Preservation and Protection of Lake Singletary and its Watershed.
LSWA Projects
Status: 100% Complete
Project Manager: Dick Norlin (508) 865-2581
In 1996 LSWA applied for and was awarded a second DEM Small Lakes and Ponds Grant
The project budget was $18.5K, with 50% of the funds coming from the state and the 50% match supplied by LSWA.
We used these funds to acquire equipment for our volunteer water quality monitoring program, publish educational materials, and perform treatment for Eurasian watermilfoil.
Winter has crossed the stern and full steam ahead to summer. So Long Solid Singletary!
The annual Lake Singletary Earth Day Cleanup will be held April 20. We had a modest turnout last year, and really appreciate those who took part! Lets see how we can do this year!

The Last Algae Treatment was on August 10!
Selected areas of Lake Singletary in Sutton/Millbury were chemically treated with USEPA/MA registered aquatic herbicides and algaecides to control nuisance and invasive aquatic vegetation and algae on Thursday, August 10, 2023. The entire lake was closed to swimming until August 11, 2023.
The treatment was done for the Lake Singletary Watershed Association, pursuant to licenses/permits from MassDEP and the Sutton and Millbury Conservation Commissions.
SOLitude Lake Management of Shrewsbury is the state licensed company that performed the treatment. Click for official posting and notice.
