Special Considerations

AQUACULTURE
While
previous sections of this web site deal
specifically with the practical symptomatic approaches to controlling aquatic plants,
other considerations may be involved in managing a body of water. Some understanding
of watersheds, pond construction, water chemistry and fisheries biology can be useful
in protecting, renovating and/or enhancing the water resource. It must be kept in mind
that any biological, chemical or physical alteration made in the aquatic environment
will have inter-related impacts.
Therefore, it is important that any management technique implemented be done carefully
and with forethought as to what factors may be affected. While some bodies of water can
support multiple-use activities, others are limited to specific purposes.
The ideas presented here are intended to assist in maximizing their recreational,
functional and/or aesthetic value.
