Merrymeeting is correct and why I sighted fertilizer and septic. I however disagree….many still fertilize in close proximity to lake. Have seen it. That said runoff is a huger factor. For example a guy the fertilizes his lawn a couple hundred or more yards from the lake near a stream, creek or even a catch basin that dumps into the lake or a lake the feeds into Winni ….guess what that’s a factor. Attend a meeting for the Winnipesaukee Watershed Assoc and it’s an eye opener.
