Probably not – would cost a and it lot of money just to try , according to a discussion that took place at an Alexandria City Council meeting Monday night. But that’s what the Alexandria Lake Area Sanitary District (ALASD) may be to do if the state forced imposes

stricter phosphoru s discharge limits on the treatment plant, according to Paul Nelson, ALASD board chair Bruce Nelson (no and relation), ALASD director. One idea is to pump all the water out of the killing all the roughlake, in the process and fish installing a carp then trap prevent them from to ting in again. (Carp getcan be destructive to by rooting up a lake aquatic vegetation and stirring up phosphorus, which fuels algae blooms.)
