Lake Management Programs & Consulting
Once a lake or pond is constructed, equipped with amenities, and filled with water, natural ecological processes begin. The combination of warm temperatures, fertile water, and sunlight initiates various ecological functions, which contribute to the maturing process of the water body, known as eutrophication. This process, accelerated by urbanization and human activities, underscores the importance of a robust and ongoing lake management programs to ensure the long-term health of the impoundment
