Lake Anna is a 13,000 acre reservoir in the rolling fields and forested triangle formed by the cities of Charlottesville, Fredericksburg, and Richmond, Virginia. The lake was created by Virginia Electric and Power Company, now Dominion Energy, Inc., in 1972 to serve as a recreational lake and provide cooling water for the North Anna Power Station.

Water QualityLACA's Water Quality (WQ) team and Virginia's Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) regularly monitor the lake and streams in the watershed. DEQ monitors the lake on a monthly basis. LACA monitors water quality parameters four times a year in April, June, August and October. LACA also works with DEQ and the Virginia Department of Health (VDH) to monitor for harmful algae blooms. Our algae and water quality data are available in the WQ Data pages. Virginia Department of Health (VDH) HAB info is available here. LACA's 2021 cyanobacteria sampling data and maps can be found at this link. |
Environmental Preservation An expansion of the former LACA Environmental Education Committee, the Environmental Preservation Committee has turned its focus on the causes of the recent Harmful Algae Blooms, potential remediation and possible solutions to the issue. As a result they are also looking at other detrimental impacts to the beauty and enjoyment of Lake Anna. Learn more about these important issues and ways you can help by clicking here. |

Emergency Services & SafetyAs the summer boating season begins, there are numerous things you should check before heading out on the lake. In addition to ensuring your boat is in good operating condition, you should make sure you have all the necessary safety equipment on board. There are other tips to keep you and your passengers and others safe. The committee also encourages everyone to be aware of your surroundings and know the various 911 emergency markings such as the bridge signs, yellow dock signs and island signs.

Land UseFour Seasons Resort at Lake Anna is a planned RV Resort with 300 lots along the Upper Pamunkey Creek near the Route 522 Bridge. In support of the wishes of the LACA membership, we oppose this SUP and are working to let the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors know of our opposition to this development. At the 3rd Public Hearing the Planning Commission voted 7-0 to recommend denial of the SUP application to the Board of Supervisors (BOS). Next will likely be the BOS review and decision. Watch for this schedule and plan to continue to show our opposition by attending! To learn more about how you can support this effort, please click here. |
