Abstract/Contents:Lakes, ponds, and streams are often used as exceptional features in the design of property. Discusses management techniques for preventing surface water nutrient levels from being augmented by fertilizers applied to turf, thus preventing subsequent aquatic weed growth. Nitrogen is generally the most highly applied portion of the fertilizer mix and is also the most soluble. Phosphorus is usually the most limiting factor in aquatic weed systems and an enormous amount of growth can result from small amounts of it. "You can help regulate reservoir water quality with simple, preventive measures that ensure a nutrient load won't overwhelm your irrigation system."
