Follow up to N. Lagoon harvesting and S. Lagoon water monitoring
On September 18, 2025, the Board of Directors motioned to approve Lake Tech to come in with a Aquatic Harvester to remove the Widgeon Weed/grass from the N. Lagoon.
Notice was posted on the Marquee, Website and Facebook
The N. Lagoon and Calypso ramp were closed for maintenance September 22 – September 26.
Lake Tech Harvester cut the 8 feet tall vegetation. Some of the vegetation was below 2 and 4 feet and the harvester could not reach those plants.
Another find was Asian Date Mussels. According to Fish and Wildlife sources, (Lake Tech reached out to) there is no reporting necessary. These are in the bay and potentially could spread if you do not wash/clean your boat, trailer, vehicle etc., especially if you boat other places.
Also, found were dead goldfish and aquarium plants -all invasive.
Lake Tech has placed a buoy in the S. Lagoon- Sunrise monitoring the water quality. The buoy monitoring collects data and I am able to see the data on the computer. The CSD staff will receive training in the next few weeks.
If you have any questions, please call the CSD office and not the contractor.
Thank you very much,
