E&LP Helps Mitigate Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) in New Jersey | Engineering & Land Planning Associates, Inc.

E&LP is doing our part in helping mitigate harmful algal blooms (HABs) in New Jersey’s lakes. We are proud to support the NJDEP in its HAB Prevention projects, and we hope more lakes will be open for recreation this year.

“Rosedale Lake in Hopewell Township, Mercer County is owned and managed by Mercer County Park Commission and is located within Mercer Meadows. The lake has an extensive drainage area of currently unfiltered runoff and has experienced some of the highest HAB cell counts in New Jersey over the past few years. The goal of the funded project is to manage water quality conditions via structural practices to decrease the nutrient concentrations within the lake. This will be accomplished via the installation of an aerator device, barley bales and constructed floating wetlands. These various practices are designed to prevent the introduction of additional nutrients into Rosedale Lake and to reduce internal nutrient loading.”
