The Aquamog CCX-238 Creating a New Channel Through a Thick Cattail Zone

This press release features the Aquamog CCX in action. The aquatic rig is perfect for creating channels or removing excess cattail growth from lakes. This is by far the quickest and most effective Aquamog when it comes to just emergent aquatic plants and cattail removal. Where other Aquamogs need to separate attachments to do the same work, the Aquamog ccx just gets after it to make new open water.

The Aquamog CCX with its two separate cutter blades in the front of the barge can uproot cattails to a depth of three feet. The blades move the machine as well as do the root removal task. Getting rid ofthe roots limits re-growth in the area.

When the roots are removed they float on top of the water and are than easily picked up and removed from the water body using an aquatic plant harvester. The harvester transports the vegetation to the shore for final placement and/or off site landfill.

Cattails are a beneficial plant that have a lot purposes in nature. Cattails provide filtering of heavy metals from wetlands, as well as provide homes for birds and other wildlife.

But, if not properly maintained they can quickly turn into a huge aquatic weed issues that can be very hard and costly to handle. That is why the Aquamog CCX was built.

The Aquamog equipment line was invented in the early 1980′s by Aquatics Unlimited (AU). The McNabb family founded Aquatics Unlimited in the 1970s. Both Tom and Dave McNabb developed the Aquamog name and line of equipment through the 80s and 90′s while with Aquatics Umlimited. Tom continued the Aquamog line into the new century with the addition of the MarshMog. Tom’s new company Clean Lakes, Inc. (www.cleanlake.com) located in Martinez, CA and Dave’s company DK Environmental (www.dkenvironmental.com) in Lafayette, CA have been working together on the Aquamog CCX project for about 10 years and in February 2009 the Aquamog CCX-238 was welcomed into into the Aquamog line.
