Pond & Lake Management
Monthly Lake and Pond Management Services from Georgia Stormwater Services
Staying compliant with environmental regulations is critical to avoiding costly problems such as fish kills, flooding, foul odors, and invasive weed overgrowth. Georgia Stormwater Services takes a holistic approach to pond and lake management, focusing on the long-term health, balance, and sustainability of each waterbody.
During each monthly visit, the team conducts thorough water quality testing. This includes measuring oxygen levels, pH, clarity, and nutrient content while also inspecting for signs of algae blooms, distressed fish, or structural concerns. Algae and aquatic weed control are central components of the service. Licensed professionals apply targeted treatments to manage nuisance species like hydrilla, duckweed, and filamentous algae before they can spread.
Technicians also monitor the health of fish and aquatic ecosystems. If the pond or lake includes fountains, aerators, or circulation equipment, these are cleaned and tested to ensure proper functionality. Shorelines are inspected for erosion or damage, and minor issues may be addressed during the visit. More significant repairs are documented with recommendations for stabilization or restoration.
Pest management, including mosquito control, is provided through environmentally safe larvicides and other approved methods. Inlet and outlet structures are also checked to ensure proper water flow, reducing the risk of backups, drainage failures, or flooding. After each visit, clients receive a detailed service report with photos and notes on current conditions, actions taken, and next steps if needed.
For projects beyond routine services, such as dredging, fish stocking, permitting support, or shoreline restoration, Georgia Stormwater Services offers custom solutions tailored to the needs of each site.
