Martin County investigating new algae clean up technologies

From WPTV:
This summer has been much better in terms of toxic algae in our waterways.  Martin County continues to explore new technologies to clean up algae.

“In the Poinicana Gardens community of Hobe Sound, the normally quiet streets were rattled recently by the sound of machinery.

It was an effort by a company called Blue Nano Technologies to clear a retention pond of algae. It’s not a toxic blue-green variety.

“The county is doing everything we can possibly do to investigate these new technologies that are forthcoming,” said Martin County Environmental Coordinator Dianne Hughes.”
