Tri City Lake

Tri City Community Lake is centrally located between Hallsville, Centralia and Sturgeon, in Boone County Missouri. The lake is 30 acres and has a watershed of 325 acres. Land use is 45% crop, 28% forest, and 17% grassland/pasture. The lake’s small ratio of watershed size to lake volume means that this lake is able to process inputs from the watershed. Thus the lake has only moderate nutrient levels, even though 45% of its watershed is cropland.
