This all started due to our television interview a few years ago.

Attention PCPOA members, please refrain from using fertilizer containing phosphates.  These extra phosphates get into the ground water and become part of our lakes problem.   The middle number should be 0.  Example 10-0-10
They can be purchased at Home Depot, Farm Fleet and Fleet Farm, etc.

 

Established in 1976, the Petenwell Lakes Property Owners’ Association (
PLPOA) was formed to promote the rights of the public so that full utilization of the lake would be assured for all people. The operating area for the association was established as follows: from Highway 73 South to Highway 82 and Highway 13 west to Highway 80.

Today, PCPOA continues to work to protect the rights of the communities it serves to enjoy full use and enjoyment of the Petenwell and Castle Rock lakes.

Please note:  You should shower and your children should shower after water activities and keep your pets out of the water.
Our current projects include:

 

 
  • Getting WDNR to begin cleanup of blue-green algae and mercury pollution from Petenwell and Castle Rock lakes, as well as removal of dioxin-contaminated carp.  See August 27, 2004 Letter to WDNR, Page 1, Page 2, Page 3 (PDF).
 
  • Getting a Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) hearing at Lake Petenwell.
    See 
    July 27, 2004 Letter to Senator Russ Feingold, Page 1, Page 2 (PDF).
