Description
Three men in hip-waders clear weeds from edge of lake. Other images on contact sheet show several similar views, and shots of the lake and ducks. Caption: Harvest Time - Westlake lake maintenance workers use rakes and a strainer to remove underwater weeds growing near the shoreline of the 150-acre lake. Similar weeds, growing in the main lake channel out of the reach of the rakes, have alarmed residents, who claim the lake is no longer safe for sailing. Westlake officials are reluctant to use chemicals to kill the weeds, fearing an upset in the ecology of the lake.
