RE: 2005 :,ake Management Agreement for
The Town of Westlake, Texas
Hello Troy:
I propose a lake treatment schedule which will be performed and billed on
on a monthly basis. Applications of algaecides and/or herbicides will be made
as needed to control excess algae and submerged pondweed in the four ponds
in the Glenwood Farms subdivision.
The cost of this service will be et $275 plus chemical per monthly period.
Algaecide for algae and herbicide for submerged pondweed will be billed to
you at my cost. Product will be delivered by backpack. I estimate that no more
5 gallons of algaecide will be needed on each application every two weeks.
The current cost of algaecide is $17.32 per gallon. In addition, herbicides may
be needed from time to time to control submerged pondweed. This agreement
covers chemical and its application only.
Algaecide applications should commence May 1, 2006 and continue through
October 31, 2006. Payment is due promptly upon invoice receipt. Please make
your check payable to Texas AquaServe, LP.
Please let me know if this treatment program is acceptable. Since this letter can
serve as our "Lake Management Agreement," I have added a signature line for
your convenience. Please fax a signed copy to 214-750-7299.
