Association for Beaver Lake Watershed

The Association for Beaver Lake Environment has an excellent list of threats to Beaver Lake on its forum page. The group wants people to list other threats. I'll add a few things as they occur to me:
Grass clippings and leaves and other yard waste allowed to fly onto sidewalks and into streets and thus into storm drains, ditches and streams contribute to siltation and add unwanted nutrients to the lake.
Litter from streets and parking lots can be dangerous to wildlife as well as clog storm drains and add a lot of ugliness to our stream banks and the lake itself.
