Utah Lake Islands?
#16
Stupidest thing I have ever heard of. Dredge the lake and make islands with the toxic mud, to "restore" it. Private business wants to this, but not because of possible profits, no, it's to restore the lake. ROLMAO They must think we are easy to scam, and we are. Legislature is already on board. Development? They hear the word and light up like Newman seeing a lasagna.
Dredging, no matter how done is ugly. Dredges ripping up the bottom with big suction pumps vacuuming up the sludge and pumping itto coffered islands and the excess fluid leeching back into the lake, supposedly "filtered". Phragmites filter too, and absorb nutrients. Hey, Quaggas are filter cleaners, maybe that would be a better idea to clean the water.
Environmentally Utah lake is Sad. Biologically it is thriving. Man, as he often does waited to long to realise what an asset it was and destroyed it with our waste and chemicals.
Better to just leave it alone, it will not heal, it can't. Man has choked off most of the water that used to go into it. Deer Creek, Jordanelle, CUP, and dozens of canals siphon it off. So, I guess it is what it is, a eutrophic lake.
