SUN JOURNAL • February 17, 2023

The Lakes Association of Norway, a volunteer group that receives funding from the town, conducted tests at three sites in November. One of three areas tested at Hobbs Pond showed evidence of cow DNA and E. coli. The source is likely cow manure according to the lakes association. “There are several farms owned by different farmers that need to be investigated,” the report said.
