Questions about
your Pond or Lake?
Due to the
complex nature of water remediation and algae removal, we have put together a
list of factors that will have a bearing on how successful you will be in
solving the problem and determine the cost for your project.
When deciding whether or not you
want to do-it- yourself or have a professional remediation company quote on the
job, these are factors that should be taken into consideration.
Water
Chemistry -
Environmental factors
- pH
- Water temperature - specify F or
C
- Alkalinity
- Salinity
- Dissolved oxygen levels - in ppm
taken at noon
- Biota
Levels of
contaminants - What is it now and what levels will it be reduced to during and
after treatments?
- Ammonia nitrogen NH3
- Nitrate levels
- Nitrite levels
- Phosphorous levels in
ppm
- Total dissolved solids in
ppm
- Copper levels in ppm
- Iron levels in ppm
- Fecal coliform count - (raw
sewage)
- Hydrocarbons or industrial
chemicals
- Cyanobacteria
The size of your pond - in acre
feet
For computing the volume of a pond
or lake in gallons, use one of the following:
- Length x width x depth (in feet) x
7.48 = number of gallons or
- 1 acre/foot = 325,000
gallons.
Other information required
to assess your problem would include:
What is the history of your pond
and treatments:
- Water source
- What type of soil is the pond
built in
- Previous use of chemicals - type,
quantity and application rates/frequency
- Previous use of other remediation
or organic or biological products or other products to remove algae - type,
quantity and application rates/frequency, if none used please state
- Type of mechanical aeration
systems, if none used please state
- Type of filtration systems
currently in use, if none used please state
- Proximity to a septic systems (in feet) and size
of the septic system and information on when the last time the system was
serviced

around the pond- type, amount and frequency of use
- Use of pesticides/herbicides

dairy, swine (specify type)
- Any share water source with farm
- List all other agricultural
influences incl. home gardens

- Approx. number and size and type
of fish
- Recent mortalities of
fish
- Have the fish been treated for
diseases - type of treatment
- Access by any waterfowl - ducks or
geese
Other influences:
- Storm water run-off
- What is the source, can it be
influenced ?
- Has the run-off water been tested,
if so what are the results
The condition of
water:
- Color
- Clarity
- Smell - describe odor, chemical,
sulphurous
- Is the smell strong ?
- Sludge - thickness
composition
- Algae - amount as a percentage of
surface area - type and how long the algae has been visible
- Cyanobacteria - amount as a
percentage of surface area - type and how long the algae has been visible
- Has the pond company advised you
about the type of toxins produced by the species in your pond ?
- Describe the
algae for more information
