Vou can find out by phoning Envi- ronment Ontario's Acid Precipitation Office at (416) 323-^051 between 8:15 and ) Collect calls are accepted at this number. You have access to a continuing program that analyzes the susceptibil- ity of Ontario's recreational lakes to acid attack. Researchers are examining the alka- linity of lake waters. This is a measure of a lake's natural acid-neutralizing capacity Lakes vary greatly in their ability to neutralize acid loadings. Some can handle acid rain quite well, particu- larly lakes t)n alkaline soil or lime- stone deposits. Lakes are listed in the "Acid Sen- sitivity of Lakes in Ontario Guide " This booklet now includes informa- tion about lakes, listed as not sensitive, low sensitivit); moderate sensitivity, extreme sensitivity and acidified. Lakes are arranged by county or district and listed alphabetically within each division.
