On
Tuesday, May 20th, Hey and Associates, Inc. will be conducting the annual
spring beach herbicide treatment at both Main Beach and West Beach swimming
areas in Crystal Lake. Both swimming areas are to be treated with Navigate™, a
granular form of a selective aquatic herbicide to control submersed aquatic
vegetation. A granular formulation of Cutrine Plus™, an algaecide used to treat
a type of algae called Chara (also known as Muskgrass or Skunkweed), that is
found growing in the shallower areas of each swimming area, will also be
applied.
Water use
restrictions are as follows:
Do not use
water from treated areas for irrigation, sprays or for potable (drinking) water
for a period of 21 days
Do not
swim in treated water for a minimum of 24 hours after the application date (see
above)
There are
no restrictions on using water from treated areas for fishing after this
application. For more information contact Hey and Associates, Inc. at
847-740-0888.
