Lewisville Lake Watershed -Sanger, TX - Watershed Markers and Monuments on Waymarking.com

Lewisville Lake, formerly known as Garza-Little Elm Reservoir, is a reservoir on the Elm Fork of the Trinity River in Denton County near Lewisville. Originally engineered in 1927 as Lake Dallas, the reservoir was expanded in the 1940s and 1950s and renamed Lewisville Lake. It was built for flood control purposes and to serve as a water source for Dallas and its suburbs, but residents also use it for recreational purposes. The Lewisville Lake watershed is large, covering six hundred and twenty thousand acres northwest of the DFW metropolitan area. You can read more here. This sign is on the north side of the Porter Sports Complex in Sangar, which is west of the lake. Set at a storm drain, it is a reminder that anything that goes down that drain is going to end up in the local drinking water.
