The majority of ponds and lakes in Tennessee are man-made, and man-made bodies of water require regular maintenance and dredging every so often.
A lake or pond can expect to accumulate roughly 1 inch of sedimentation a year at the very least. Most lakes or ponds will get much more sediment, and this can turn into muck or create islands throughout the body of water.
These islands will increase vegetation, leading to algae blooms and lower oxygen levels.
Aquatic South provides sediment management and pond dredging services throughout Tennessee.
