Among the expanded services that DK Environmental offers are the creation of open water and the clearing of channels, which allows for stormwater to flow to avoid floods. Having open water also provides mosquito control, which is essential to prevent the spread of diseases such as West Nile or the more recent Zika virus.
They also specialize in clearing the overgrowth of aquatic weeds, including cattail, bulrush, water iris, tule, or algae. As well as blocking flood control channels, weeds can hinder recreational activities, as they can be an irritant for swimmers and damage boat propellers and engines.
Another service DK Environmental provide is all types of water habitat enhancement projects. These include dredging ponds, restoring stream banks, sediment removal, dredging, wetland construction, or performing mitigation plant strategies.
Over the years, the company has worked together with local authorities in restoration projects such as that of Lake Machado for the City of Los Angeles. The lake was infested with cattail weeds, so the project restored the lake, creating over 20 acres of open water in the form of channels. This restoration and the continued maintenance of the lake provided flowing water for flood control purposes. Also, they provided access for mosquito fish into areas once inaccessible to help with pest control.
DK Environmental has been offering solutions for aquatic environments for the past 35 years. They are located in Lafayette, in the San Francisco Bay area, but their services cover water weed removal anywhere in the state of California. They use Aquamog amphibian machines that come in different sizes to access all types of water bodies. The company owner, Dave McNabb, has over 40 years of experience in the sector and was the first Aquamog machinery operator in the United States.
A spokesperson for the company said: “Most often it will be far better plus cost-effective to use a pro water weed control enterprise to eradicate and control your water weed problems.”
