With the large amounts of sun these reservoirs receive, coupled with nitrates and phosphates leeching into the waters can lead to large amounts of algae that will at some point will inhibit the recreational use of the reservoir. <br /><br />These facts were ignored in our previous experience until it was too late. The reservoir area was under a building moratorium for over 5 years until a sewer system could be installed. <br /><br />The result was no new homes were allowed over this period and the reservoir became a haven for trash fish. The managers of the reservoir also had to purchase large floating machines to cut through the algae bloom so people could access boat docks and most beache areas became useless.Flatfishnoreply@blogger.com
