Description
Description | Pueblo Parks and Recreation has launched a dredging project at Lake Clara in Mineral Palace Park to remove accumulated sediment, organic muck, and debris that have reduced the lake's depth and impacted its ecosystem. The project involves draining the lake to improve water quality, reduce nutrient loads, and prevent toxic algal blooms. Fish were relocated by Colorado Parks and Wildlife before the lake was drained. The lake must dry out thoroughly, which could take over a year, before cleanup and dredging work can proceed. |
