BIELER, PE., CFM April 10, 2026 Honorable Town Board Town of Orchard Park 4295 South Buffalo Street Orchard Park, NY 14127 Re: Consultant Agreement - Pond/Lake Management, Maintenance, Non-Pesticide Aquatic Vegetation Control & Fish Stocking Dear Board Members: Similar to previous years, to complete the management and maintenance of various ponds/lake including Green Lake; itis necessary to hire an environmental consulting firm that is familiar with non-pesticide aquatic vegetation control (grass carp), water quality (microbes and water aeration), general consultation and fish stocking. | have again solicited services and received a proposal from a local environmental consultant firm, AquaTech Environmental, Inc., which is qualified and more than capable of completing lake management work for Green Lake and other various Town owned ponds. Fish stocking in fifteen (15) Town owned water bodies would also be completed in the necessary timeframe, weather and appropriate season. The environmental services to be provided for the maintenance of Town ponds/lake are proposed as an annual maintenance service agreement and will include: Non-Pesticide Aquatic Vegetation Control (grass carp stocking), Initial Walkthrough (Biological, Chemical and Physical Analysis), Water Quality Analysis, Aeration Assessment, Installation and Adjustment, Stocking Permit Procurement, Fish Stocking, Fishery Assessment/Management and General Consultation Services. Aqua Tech Environmental, Inc. will provide these services on an as-needed basis for a fee of $1,000.00 due in April. Also a $1,000.00 stocking deposit will be due in April and will be later subtracted from the overall stocking costs. The total anticipated pond treatment (weather dependent) cost for 2026 is $0.00 for the year (attachment 2.0). Six (6) Town owned water bodies are listed with costs in case any microbial treatment.is needed this year. The 2026 pond and lake maintenance proposal includes $2,000.00 towards possible water treatment options along with 50% cost sharing opportunities from the drainage district. The $2,000.00 could also be applied towards the stocking of 75 grass carp in Green Lake pending spillway modifications and NYSDEC approval/permitting. The 75 grass carp would aid in the aquatic vegetation control in the lake and are offered by AquaTech at a cost of $1,725.00. The NYSDEC has become more cautious regarding grass carp stocking due to potential ecological impacts. There is concern that grass carp may enter connected waterways and affect regulated wetlands and sensitive species. As a result, permitting for stocking remains uncertain, therefore stocking costs have been developed to account for both scenarios, with and without the use of grass carp.

Honorable Town Board April 10, 2026 Page 2 The continuation of the Town of Orchard Park Fish Stocking Program recommendations are attached (Attachment 3.0 Fishery Management Agreement) for 2026. Mr. Adrian recommends continuing the feeder fish stocking (fathead minnows & golden shiners), game fish stocking (large mouth bass) and increasing grass carp stocking to aid in weed control and account for future restrictions of grass carp. The 2026 proposed stocking cost including grass carp is $9,947.00 (attachment 3.1) and $9,426.75 (attachment 3.2) without grass carp, less the $1,000.00 deposit. The entire projected cost for Town Pond/Lake maintenance, possible water quality treatment and stocking for calendar year 2026, is not to exceed $18,000.00. There are presently funds ($22,000.00) allocated under Orchard Park Engineering Department “Water Quality Consultants” A01440 50541 for this work. The Town Board must be aware, as previously discussed with AquaTech, that this natural means of aquatic vegetation control and water quality management is not a perfect science and is heavily influenced by outside factors such as weather, nutrient loading, oxygen levels, etc. Another factor to highlight is that, other than Green Lake, no aeration projects are funded under this agreement, which are also a major component of improving water quality. Lastly, this amount of funding would not cover all microbial treatments in a single year if they were, for some reason, required for all proposed waterbodies, which is highly unlikely. All involved parties must know there will be a learning curve with these natural methods. The true benefit for the environment comes with eliminating pesticides. |, therefore, recommend that you adopt the following resolutions: Authorize the Supervisor to sign the agreement with AquaTech Environmental, Inc., 45 Kent Avenue, Blasdell, New York 14219, for an amount not to exceed $18,000.00 to provide the following: e Professional consultation for yearly environmental services for Town-Owned Ponds & Lake ($1,000.00 fee due in April). « Non-Pesticide water, quality treatment services (excluding aeration) for various Town- Owned Ponds & Lake; including Brush Mountain, Lyrica North & South, Holley Ridge, CRV Acom Circle, CRV East & West, Milestrip Reclamation, Birdsong, Riley Meadows, Pleasant Acres East & West, and Knoche pond, also Green Lake. ¢« Complete NYSDEC permitting & fish stocking in specified Town-Owned Ponds/Lake as per attachment 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2 Fishery Management Agreement ($1,000.00 deposit due in Apt).
