Aquatic Environments, Inc. of Benicia, CA and Water Resource Management of Glendale, AZ have joined the nation’s largest lake management firm, SOLitude Lake Management®.

The three firms find common ground in their focus on client satisfaction, continuous research and the use of cutting-edge industry technologies.
