A vital part of the area’s watershed, Carter Lake is a natural catch basin for storm runoff and melting snows. Excess nutrients being washed into the lakes leads to excessive aquatic plant growth.

The Aquarius Systems HM-1020 Aquatic Plant Harvester is the perfect solution for Carter Lake. The 1020 easily collected a full 16,000 lbs of cut vegetation in only 20 minutes of harvesting. This harvester holds so many weeds that it took two trucks to accept all of the harvested vegetation.
