The Lake is now in the data base of the Army Corps of Engineers. If Congress appropriates the funds, the Corps will conduct a study of the Lake to determine if and how it can be restored. This was accomplished with the efforts of local and state legislators.

The Federal Government will fund the study at a cost of about $100,000. Thereafter, if the project proceeds, the cost will be shared between Local and Federal governments.

This is the last best chance to restore the Lake.

Regrettably, Congress has not funded the study that would have been performed by the Army Corps of Engineers. It may happen, but not in the near future.

The algae bloom has begun and it will not be long before the lake will be covered with a green slime.

This stuff is overtaking the lake. It is aggressive and is very very bad.

Just in time for Old Freehold Day. It is a shame that the lake cannot be used for any recreation - no fishing and no boating. Horrid.

Delay delay delay. No one in government is prepared to step forward and solve the problem.

In 2012 the lake was treated with an herbicide and algaecide which killed off the invasive weeds and algae strangling the lake. The treatments were successful in 2012. Now we must wait and see if there will be a resurgence. Freehold Township, Freehold Boro and the Lake Topanemus Park Commission provided the funds for treatment.

The Lake Topanemus Park Commission inexplicably stopped treatment in 2015. The conditions have worsened exponentially. Ignorance and neglect. No planning, no foresight. Just government paralysis. It's a shame.

The Lake has never been this bad this early in the year. This is plain and simple nelgect and mismanagement by the Lake Topanemus Park Commission.
