Pond Management
PLM has a specialized pond division to manage smaller bodies of water, whether you have a puddle or a 10 acre pond. We offer a wide variety of pond management services, including herbicide and algaecide applications, water quality evaluation, biological control programs, fish stocking, and pond design consulting. We offer a range of specialized services for golf course ponds, to ensure that they meet the combined requirements of aesthetics and use as an irrigation water source.
Proper management of a pond is very important. Our experienced staff understands the delicacy of each pond and the fact that “one size does not fit all.” When managing a pond we need to look at the big picture. For example if excessive or improper use of algaecides and/or herbicide are used, it may reduce native desirable plants to limited or eradicated levels. If this occurs it will increase the potential for exotic plant species and tolerant undesirable algae growth. By implementing a balanced management program, provided by our experienced pond management division, we can increase the recreational ability and aesthetics of your pond while also promoting a balanced ecosystem that supports a diversity desirable of plants, algae and fisheries environment.
