Stormwater ponds and lakes are critical infrastructure for communities, HOAs, and municipalities. They manage runoff, prevent flooding, and filter pollutants, protecting both property values and the environment. Over time, however, sediment, organic ...

Excess sediment is one of the most common problems in ponds and lakes. As organic matter, runoff, and eroded soils accumulate, they create sediment trouble zones that reduce depth, fuel algae blooms, and disrupt aquatic balance. Identifying these hig...

Microcystis, a common cyanobacteria, often thrives in nutrient-rich ponds and lakes. It creates unsightly surface scums and, in some cases, produces toxins harmful to humans, pets, and aquatic life. Without professional care, blooms can return each y...

As temperatures drop and aquatic activity slows, fall becomes one of the most important, and often overlooked, seasons for pond and lake care. A proactive approach now can prevent costly problems later, such as algae blooms, shoreline erosion, or win...

Each fall, vibrant leaves transform shorelines into scenic landscapes, but when those leaves reach the water, they introduce hidden risks for lakes, ponds, and stormwater systems. Decaying leaf litter is a major contributor to nutrient loading, a pro...

Phosphorus is one of the primary drivers of algae blooms in freshwater ecosystems. While it plays a necessary role in aquatic plant growth, elevated phosphorus levels can cause imbalances that threaten water quality and aquatic life. This is particul...
