Bioremediation of Occom Pond at Dartmouth College Clears Water - Ecosystem Restoration
Pine Park is a ninety-acre forest of 125-year-old pine trees at Dartmouth College. This park begins at the north end of campus, along the edge of the Hanover Country Club golf course, and extends along the Connecticut River from Ledyard Canoe Club northward. The trees were saved from the Diamond Match Company in 1900 by local residents who later turned the land over to the College and to the Town of Hanover.
The College worked with Ecological Laboratories (ELI) to develop a biological augmentation program using MICROBE-LIFT® technology to clean the pond. The purpose of the program was to speed the biological degradation of all accumulated organic matter within the pond’s ecosystem: along the shore (littoral zone), on the surface of the open water (limnetic zone), and the bottom sediment (benthic zone).
