🚨Chemical treatment of Island Grove
⏰ Friday, May 19, 2023
🚫 Pond closed to swimming, boating and fishing on day of treatment
Island Grove Pond in Abington will be chemically treated with a USEPA/MA registered aquatic herbicide, Sonar (fluridone), targeting the control of nuisance and invasive aquatic vegetation on Friday, May 19, 2023. The pond will be closed to swimming, boating, and fishing during the day of treatment. Additional restrictions include a sixty-day restriction on using pond water for irrigation. Temporary signs that warn of the applicable water use restrictions will be posted around the pond shoreline in advance of treatment. The neon signs will be posted around the entire shoreline with a focus on main access points along Lake Street. The work is being performed for the Town of Abington, under contract with Water & Wetland, LLC and pursuant to an Order of Conditions permit from the Abington Commission and License to Apply Chemicals permit from MA DEP.
Additional treatments will commence during the Summer for the continued control of the target invasive species. Signs will be posted around the shoreline prior to each treatment. All treatments will also be posted on the Town of Abington’s social media pages.
