It is likely killing all the endemic and special wildlife within the ponds. No light or air can reach down into the water depths, and I wouldn’t be surprised if we have already lost many species. All it would take to help is rake some of that stuff out at least.
Also what happened with the section of natural old canal near Tee Street that had ocean and fresh water that stretches down Devonshire south shore road – it was emptied of water and a liner was put in there for months and left to dry out and the water was never restored. Ive seen ocean fish swimming up these canals in the last few years before that was done. You cant just cut out a section of canal, you will kill off whatever was living in it past the cut off point.
