Photo Descriptions:

  1. Photograph 1: Degraded pond with overgrown vegetation and water quality issues. Residents of this area are concerned about water quality issues and the potential for mosquito breeding.
  2. Photograph 2: Pond has been dredged. Overgrown vegetation is removed and water quality has visible improved.
  3. Photograph 3: Silt fence is used for soil erosion control on the banks. After 4 weeks, grass is already growing to re-stabilize the bank. The silt fence will be removed once the Streambank has stabilized.
