This is something we really didn't need

Have you looked at the water pouring into our lake from the watershed recently? As you know, most of our watershed is farmland that contains plenty of loose soil and fertilizer. We just spent a lot of your dues money on the alum treatment and it worked, but the nutrients and sediment will absolutely shorten the life of the fix. When the inflow overruns our retention pond as it has done a couple times recently it looks like chocolate milk. We can't catch a break with the drought and now this. Frustrating!
