Today, 183 homes and cottages border the lake.The lake was found to be approaching a state of eutrophication in the 1970s. The lake's sanitation was improved, following the installation of a sewer system in Dunham in 1986–87, which replaced the septic tanks used previously. Additionally, the lake's condition ameliorated following the re-vegetation of the lakeshore, restoration of ditches, and the installation of sediment sensors and catchment basins by the city of Dunham in collaboration with the Association pour la protection de l’environnement du lac Selby (APELS).In 2007, Selby Lake, along with other lakes in Quebec, were found to be contaminated with blue-green algae.Selby Lake was mentioned in season 2, episode 12 (The Choice) of the American television drama series Homeland.

The North Yamaska river (in French: Rivière Yamaska Nord) is a tributary of the Yamaska river. It flows over 47.8 kilometres (29.7 mi) on the south shore of the Saint Lawrence river in Quebec, Canada and passes through five municipalities, some of them sourcing their fresh water from it. Like the rest of the Yamaska, it is an important source of life, though urban development, agriculture and industrial uses have had a negative impact on the ecosystem depending on its waters since the colonization of the Eastern Townships. An awakening in regards to pollution in the North Yamaska has led to an increasing amount of movements such as collective art and eco-friendly action around the river; efforts are noted in local municipalities and their regional county municipalities to alter the impacts of towns and villages on water quality.
