The committee aims to educate, encourage, and assist Association members in becoming environmental stewards of their lake property. There are three sub-committees:  Water Quality- to maintain and improve the water quality in front of their property and the Chain as a whole, including its watershed.  Native Species- to maintain and increase the native species on their property and the Chain as a whole.  Invasive Species- to remove and discourage invasive species on their property and Chain as a whole. Committee members work with the DNR and the academic specialists from UW Oshkosh and Stevens Point. They regularly attend various meetings, including meetings held by the Lake District and the Land and Water Conservation Committee of Waupaca County, Wisconsin Lakes, and the Central Sands Water Action Coalition.
