Managing Large Lake Systems

Lake management programs can vary widely based on the intended management goals and the unique makeup of each individual lake system. As a result, developing an effective management program for larger systems requires not only a detailed initial biological assessment of conditions, but also a high level of applied lake management experience. We have the technical capabilities and management experience necessary to take each project from assessment to implementation.

Shoreline Erosion Control

Shoreline erosion is a common, natural phenomenon that can occur as a result of harsh weather, recreation, poor landscape design or, simply, an aging freshwater ecosystem. If left unaddressed, your lake, stormwater pond or canal may experience native vegetation and habitat loss, nutrient loading, excess runoff and other complications. Through SOLitude’s close partnerships, we are pleased to offer a variety of unique shoreline erosion control solutions that halt sedimentation and restore damaged banks.
