The lake at Mansel Park will be stocked regularly by the Arizona Game & Fish Department as part of the Community Fishing Program. Mosquito larvae hang at the water surface to take in oxygen, making them easy and tasty targets for fish. There will be fish to consume any mosquito larvae that may unexpectedly try to inhabit the lake. The lake will be relatively deep (13 feet) with circulators and aeration systems to keep the water moving. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in shallow, still water. Lakes are typically not breeding grounds for mosquitoes. What steps have been taken to reduce mosquitoes at the lake? Pumping water from the lake provides a large volume of water at high enough pressure to allow for efficient irrigation of the turf grass and plant materials in the desired time period. To water a large park in 6-8 hours means that you need to deliver a large quantity of water in a short period of time. To conserve water and benefit park users, the Town will water at night, minimizing evaporation and allowing the turf to remain in use while the park is open. Water will be pumped from the lake at Mansel Carter Oasis Park to efficiently irrigate the turf grass and plant materials. How the lake will be used to irrigate the park? The Town can use those credits to pump recovered water at the well at Mansel Carter Oasis Park into the lake and use the recovered water for landscaping at the park. The Town receives credits for the recovered water it supplies because that recovered water is being used instead of groundwater. The treated water is then delivered to a neighboring irrigation district system or to recharge basins of neighboring municipalities both options are alternatives to building a large pipeline system that would pump the treated effluent back to Queen Creek, which would be very expensive. Once that water goes down a drain, it is considered wastewater and treated at the Greenfield Water Reclamation Plant. Potable water is delivered to homes and businesses in Queen Creek. How is pumping recovered water saving the Town money? The well at Mansel Carter Oasis Park pulls reco vered water (or recharged effluent) from the ground that is non-potable (not considered for drinking, but suitable for landscaping and other uses). Where does the water in the lake come from? The lake at Mansel Carter Oasis Park is the Town’s first lake and efficiently uses the Town’s recovered water and avoids using potable (drinking) water for landscaping at the park.
