Tonetta Lake (also known as Lake Tonetta) is a freshwater lake located in the town of Southeast, New York, north of the village of Brewster. Lake Tonetta has the only public beach in Southeast, accessible to town residents and their guests. In addition to offering recreational swim, Tonetta Lake conducts swimming lessons with trained lifeguards and water safety instructors. Several hundred children register annually for swimming lessons. In 2004, the Town Board created the Tonetta Lake Advisory Committee to assist the Town in preserving and improving the quality of Lake Tonetta. The lake's viability and recreational uses have been threatened due to invasive aquatic vegetation. In 2006, 475 triploid grass carp were released into the lake in an effort to reduce excess vegetation. Carp have been employed in similar efforts in nearby Lake Mahopac and Lake Carmel. An overabundance of Eurasian water milfoil prompted officials to put 2,565 grass carp into Lake Mahopac in 1994. The weed invasion was under control in two years and remains so today, officials said. ==References== *http://www.townofsoutheast-ny.com/Home *http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:CP2pfl9IAb0J:www.thejournalnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article%3FAID%3D/20060623/NEWS04/606230330/1020/NEWS04%26template%3Dprintart+%22tonetta+lake%22+carp&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=6 * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tonetta Lake」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
