We have reached agreement with PHK, Inc., a highly qualified environmental control company, for controlling undesirable vegetation in the canal and its mouth at Lake Destiny. PHK Inc. has applied to the State of Florida for a treatment permit. On or about July 29-30, l978 it is expected that the treatment will commence. Various chemicals and sprays will be used to treat undesirable plant life. On advice of PHK and the Florida botanist we have agreed to leave small sections of torpedo grass along the waters edge to absorb excess nutrients from lawns for bank stabilization and to provide protection for small fish.
Any fish kill be insignificant.
During the treatment and for three days thereafter you are requested to refrain from using the canal or its water in any manner. This includes lawn irrigation swimming, fishing, boating, and any other activities. It has been suggested that after the vegetation is killed you may want to improve the appearance of your appurtenant property by raking the residue, drying it, and disposing it into garbage cans. Your assistance and cooperation is requested by seeing that all controls are applied by all residents and guests of Spring Lake Hills. A copy of this letter will be delivered to the address of every canal property Owner and to the President and Directors of the Spring Lake Hills Association.
