The DEC doesn't have anything as usual, they are picky around here on what they want to map.

Zeal - is it a private or public body of water? Reason I ask is maybe a local college or university has an Environmental Sciences/Fisheries program where graduate degree candidates can study a body of water. They did this in Rhode Island and I have a book that was created of bodies of water, contour maps, oxygen levels, types of life, etc. Would make a great research project for a student.

It's public and an old lake at that too which is why I'm surprised at the lack of any kind of a map for this one. However, it is vastly overshadowed by 2 famous lakes, 1 of which is literally 3 minutes away and has had a lot of research done.
