✦ Synopsis

Environmental impact assessment of some human activities at the Lake Vico basin on the water body is considered in this work. The correlation between land use and potential lake alteration is characterized using an environmental index, the lake trophic state, represented by the mean phosphorus concentration. Consequently, the environmental carrying capacity, lake state evaluation, mitigative actions and possible development scenarios are defined in a holistic approach. This approach allows the correct allocation of mitigative intervention, without drastic reduction of activities.

Keywords: environmental impact assessment, land planning, carrying capacity, impact mitigation.

## Abstract Williams Lake, Minnesota is a closed‐basin lake that is a flow‐through system with respect to ground water. Ground‐water input represents half of the annual water input and most of the chemical input to the lake. Chemical budgets indicate that the lake is a sink for calcium, yet surfici

## Abstract Slopes that have been disturbed through roadway, ski slope or other construction often produce more sediment than less disturbed sites. Reduction or elimination of sediment loading from such disturbed slopes to adjacent streams is critical in the Lake Tahoe basin. Here, use of a portabl
