Upcoming planned maintenance work at Marine Lake

Denbighshire County Council is informing residents that upcoming planned maintenance work will be undertaken at Marine Lake in Rhyl.

To perform the work the lake will be partially drained, beginning on Friday 27^th of February for approximately 2 weeks whilst annual revetment inspections and general site maintenance take place.

This partial drain will allow access to the revetments and the clearance of larger items from around the edges, whilst ensuring that there is sufficient water retained for the swans to safely remain on the lake. The lake will be topped up once the works are complete.

The Harbour Office, who manage Marine Lake, have been working with officers from Countryside Services to ensure minimal disruption to the swans and other wildlife at the site. These works have been planned to take place both outside the wildlife nesting season, and the users summer season.

The biodiversity of the lake, as well as the activities on the lake, are equally important to the future of the site and that any works and decisions made take full account of the lake as a whole.
