What’s Growing on Here?

A lake restoration

The lake is a very special place for visitors. Many spend time there watching for birds and other animals. It is a great place to relax and walk.

But the lake has been doing poorly in recent years. The water that fills it in is inconsistent, duckweed has taken over (that’s why it looks so green), and the concrete liner is in disrepair. A new plan will fix the lake and make it a thriving environment for wildlife. 

The first step to a restoration is draining the lake. You will see the water slowly recede over the next several months. Then the lake will dry out for several more.

What will happen to the wildlife? Experts tell us that the birds and turtles will relocate and that there are most likely no fish left in the lake due to the duckweed problem.
