Notice –

The lake has held up exceptionally well for an additional two weeks beyond when we normally treat, especially considering the extreme heat we have been experiencing and the rising water temperatures. However, we are experiencing a growth in the southern basin of filamentous algae and some limited weed growth as well.

Treatment will begin as early as 7/17 and complete within 2 days. Please keep in mind that algae turns a whitish color as it dies and may windrow against the shorelines, depending on where you live. 

For those of you who have noticed a drop in the water levels, this is similar to what was experienced last year. We have less water flowing in from the creeks and the subterranean inflow at the south basin. Due to the reduced inflow and our requirement to keep water flowing for the Chambers Creek fish hatchery, the levels will continue to drop until rainfalls rejuvenate the creeks.

This treatment should make for great water quality for the upcoming hot days.
