You should all be happy to know that "Analysis and case studies of enzymes and bacteria used to manage sediment, algae, and weeds" is a proposed topic for the upcoming NALMS symposium in October. Hopefully there there will be some light shed on this topic. Sue, there is a call for papers for this symposium. Perhaps you could submit your study. See the following link:
http://www.nalms.org/pdf/2009%20Symposium%20Call%20for%20Papers,%2002.23.09.pdf Also, I have put in an inquiry with the environmental engineering department at our local college (and my alma mater) Cal Poly San Luis Obispo to see if they have any students that would be interested in taking on such a study as a sr. project or masters thesis. I offered to provide aeration, bacteria, sludge judge, etc... and even the boat to any student interested. We'll see if anyone bites on this offer.
