As of this week our city has ten information kiosks located at various points along the wetland walk. Each kiosk features a top banner of native plants, all photographed by Dallas Denny, and a variety of additional photos submitted by other residents. On the bottom left corner is a QR code that will send smartphone users directly to this site for deeper intel about the stream and lake restoration---which is now considered a model project for other cities, civil engineers, and water management professionals to study.
The lakebed construction and redesign included a massive redistribution of dirt. As the lake ecology recalibrates we will have to continue managing algae for the rest of the summer. Stocking the lake with fish, including sterile grass carp, will be a help but the real results of fish activity won't be visible until next year.
Until then, one approach to algae mitigation is The Manual Assault Method (M'am), demonstrated below by six intrepid residents (two not in photo) who call themselves Team Sisyphus. Three hours of raking and seining resulted in a significant clearing of the algae bloom next to the canoe put-in.
Dateline: 11:00 EST 6/16/12. Let's see how long those results last. Good luck Team Sis!
Special thanks to Susan Ramsey for kiosk design and Kathie Denobriga, Kris Casariego, Lynne Nygaard, and Melissa Tidwell for kiosk content and editing.
It is not simple to clean carpeting in professional places as places. So, this is very important to purchase a high-quality professional rug cleaner for maintaining the challenging rug maintenance tasks in your retail outlet.
