I attached pictures of what I'm working with. Basically the chapel island is where I work. The water around the chapel gets pretty nasty. Since Texas doesn't have consistently cold winters. Year round the algae never really goes dormant. Not to mention debris blown or put in the water. The chapel is used for weddings and I wish I could partially improve the water around here.
The water being attached to a larger city retention lake poses challenges. Since the lake is public, will I need to consult with the city before using water quality products?
I understand that since this involves a larger lake the treatments wouldn't be as effective as a smaller independent system. But I'm hoping to improve the problem not remove it.
I'm hoping to take advantage of physics around the water here. When the wind blows out of the north and east, the water flows counterclockwise around the island. When the wind is out of the south the water moves clockwise. Debris can remain around the island for days until the wind shifts. I'm hoping this would also retain any product in the target waters long enough to be somewhat effective.
The fountains labeled as 1 and 2 would double as the dispersing mechanism. The product which probably comes in little dissolvable packets would be placed in a basket or cage at the fountain's intake and product sprayed out.
I'm hoping someone who knows more than me can give me some feedback before I actually do anything.
