Clogged Irrigation Filters

Thousands of tiny fish are intertwined in the filter pre-screen which blocked the flow of water , causing the  pump station to fault in early April.

Fresh water sponge has made a home in our irrigation pond and wet well and has wreaked havok on the filtration system. The photo above is of our filter pre-screen  in Fall 2012.  In 2013 we will install a chlorine drip system that will control the organism before it can attach and grow on our irrigation system components.
