Q. Please briefly describe the situation.
A. Seasonal eutrophication (algal blooms) of Buckingham Pond; has begun (early, due to early spring). Algal mats are becoming larger and larger and more numerous. I noticed aeration "fountains" operating here last year; thinking that turning them on soon before problem gets much worse, could mean a significantly improved water quality both for wildlife as well as recreational fishpeople and those of us who exercise and recreate there every day.
