About the Association

Our Association was formed in October, 2019, as explained in our History and Terms of Reference, with the help of several New Brunswick not-for-profit groups.  After initial meetings of a core team of volunteers, we established our first Bylaws in February 2020, with minor updates in December, 2021 and December, 2023.  The Mission of the Association is to engage the attention, enthusiasm and support of the people, communities, businesses and organizations in the Jemseg Grand Lake Watershed to provide a healthy watershed for all.  Please join us by becoming a member.  The cost is CAD$10 per year per person, and your support helps us achieve our goal of a healthy watershed ecosystem for all.

Want to learn more about the results on our 2024 eDNA study? Tune in each Friday for a Fintastic Fish Feature!Environmental DNA or “eDNA” refers to traces of genetic material left in the environment by living things.Skin cells, mucus, and waste are some examples of sources of eDNA.Water samples were taken from French Lake, Maquapit Lake, Jemseg River, and two locations in Grand Lake in the winter of 2024.These samples were analyzed at the NatureMetrics Genomics Lab to see what fish could be detected.What does detection mean? In many cases, it is an indication that the species is present in the area. However, contaminants and the remains of fish used as bait may also appear in the results.Do you know a fish that hasn’t appeared in the report?Genetic material can only be identified in the case it is present in the sample.Furthermore, this method of testing is still being developed. Not every species genes have been sequenced and added to the database!To see our FULL eDNA report, check the link in our bio to head to our website, where it is published under the News tab!#fish #newbrunswick #environmentalDNA #nature #conservation ...

Jemseg Grand Lake Watershed Association is with New Brunswick Alliance of Lake Associations.

Jemseg Grand Lake Watershed Association
The New Brunswick Alliance of Lake Associations is a small non-profit organization dedicated to monitoring the health of New Brunswick lakes in collaboration with the JGLWA. In early June of 2025 we installed an anchor with a buoy and floating rope just south of Grand Point on Grand Lake to look at lake temperatures and stratification over the summer. At some point, these have been moved so we are looking for your help! The anchor is a black plastic pipe attached to a 6" deck block with 3/8" floating rope to a small orange buoy on the surface. What we really need are the small temperature recorders with the data we need to monitor the health of the lake- they are wired and taped to this rope. If anyone has any information or has seen the buoy or anchor, please send us a message here or an email to [email protected] so we can collect the loggers, wherever they may be. Thank you. ...
