Lake Districts Lake Associations and Watershed Organizations

Northern Lake Service, Inc. grew out of the Wisconsin Inland Lake Renewal Program in the mid 1970s. Under that program, NLS performed numerous comprehensive lake management studies, which included extensive low-level monitoring of nutrients and metals.  While we no longer perform much of the fieldwork, we still provide unmatched analytical support for surface water projects.

From general baseline analysis of lake and stream samples, to Mercury and PCB/Pesticide testing of fish tissue or sediment, NLS is your one-stop source for analytical services.  We are also fully equipped to meet the WQX data submittal requirements (formerly R5) for EPA funded studies.
