Lake Management:
Our Lake Management is currently done by Aquatic Analysts. They are located in Middleville, NJ. We’ve had a long history with them, and we feel it is to our advantage to maintain this relationship.
Larry Kovar and his group will be on the lake in their airboat every couple of weeks checking things out. Remember, they are the only allowed power boat. When needed, he lets me know if we have a ‘problem’ spot. I will post signs at the entrance and both beaches that we have a possible treatment coming up. He then comes out, reassesses and treats if necessary and he will post official signs at those spots. Realize, that just because the airboat is on the lake, it does not mean we are being treated.
We will continue to try to balance the many uses of the lake. Currently, the fisheries are thriving in the upcoming weeds and algae. The algae that is in the lake now, is ‘good algae’. We will hold on treatments while we wait and see how the lake is going to fair. Mother Nature at work right now; we’ll let her do her thing. If you are ever concerned, please call the office. This committee, the beach committee and the office staff work closely together with Aquatic Analysts to try to ensure a healthy lake.
The treatments generally are herbicides. There is usually a 5 day irrigation restriction. Please be aware of this if you use the lake to water your plants.
Information sheets on what is being used is available at the office.
In addition, if anyone is fertilizing their lawns, please use “lake friendly” fertilizers. There are a number of places these can be purchased. It would be truly beneficial to the lake.
