Lake View Terrace, CA (Vocus) September 1, 2010
Organic Environmental Technology announced today that the City of Portland, Oregon has selected Pond Magician and Magic Sinkers as the biological treatment component of the Laurelhurst Park Pond restoration project currently underway.
“Laurelhurst is a 2.68 acre public pond in the City of Portland, Oregon that is undergoing a complete restoration, including moving away from chemical water treatments and adopting sustainable organic water treatment technology. Pond Magician and Magic Sinkers, OET’s probiotic biological treatment system was specifically selected because it effectively addresses both the water column and the sediment nutrient load, issues the City of Portland has been struggling with,” according to a statement made by Paul Scholz, one of the principals of OET.
Scholz continues, “We believe we became bidding candidates because of our work with the City of Los Angeles at Reseda Lake where we were successful in effectively addressing similar biological conditions including E. Coli with our probiotic water treatment system.”
Pond Magician safely restores freshwater ponds and lakes to their natural sustainable state by replenishing the population of Mother Nature’s naturally occurring healthy probiotic bacteria. This technology is not limited to freshwater environments. Pond Magician is also effective in brackish and salt water environments.
In a similar way to the probiotic bacteria in yogurt, Pond Magician rebuilds the natural health defenses of a water body. The probiotic bacteria in Pond Magician consume the toxins as food and convert them into beneficial nutrient such as enzymes, anti-oxidants, amino acids, and vitamins. OET’s Magic Sinkers™ contains the same safe probiotic ingredients as Pond Magician but are weighted in organic material to allow the probiotic bacteria to penetrate the bottom sludge.
