This testing location is at the intersection of McVeigh Creek and Hawk Lake. McVeigh Creek is the headwater of Hawk Lake, which is affected by historic iron mines to the north. Alamos Gold's Island Gold District Mine is now present on the shores of McVeigh Creek and has obligations for remediation of the historic iron mines which has had an effect on the quality of water downstream.
Did not measure water depth or do secchi reading.
