Also, the saturation of the Emerald estates water sample was 47%, which is poor. The dissolved oxygen level is low because as decomposers metabolize the dead algae, more and more oxygen out of the water. If people would fish in Lake Carson there would most likely be little to no fish, because fish need oxygen and if there is little oxygen then the fish will die. Furthermore, if you look at Figures 16 you will see that the Emerald Estates water sample had a poor macroinvertebrate rating. The reason being is that their sample consisted of mostly moderately tolerant and tolerant macroinvertebrates (see Figure 17). In conclusion, everything written above are all pieces of evidence that point to Emerald Estates being the source of the pollution causing algal blooms to grow in Lake Carson. Emerald Estates polluting the water needs to stop, and an action needs to be taken to prevent the algal bloom from growing even
