Sebago Lake is the water source for Greater Portland, 15% of Maine's
population. Sebago Lake is exceptionally clear and soft - clean enough
to be exempt from the expensive filtration process required with most
surface water sources.
The lake covers 30,000 acres. The watershed is more than 50
miles long, stretching from Bethel to Standish and includes parts of 24 towns.
Clearly, the lake is one of Maine's most important natural resources. What
makes Sebago Lake so unique is that it doubles as a recreation destination and a
water supply. Together, the Portland Water District, area residents, and
tourists defend the lake against potential contaminates to ensure the
exceptional quality remains for generations to come.
