The Paterswoldsemeer is an important recreational area for the city of Groningen and its surroundings. In order to continue enjoying swimming and boating, we want a lake with clean water, good natural values, a wide variety of plants and animals, little blue-green algae, and without too many water plants. The water board is working on the water quality of the lake in accordance with the Water Framework Directive (WFD).
