    The Prado Dam in Tolima, Colombia has caused various environmental problems due to human activity that harms the natural environment. Pollution from the dam affects much of the local population. Aquaculture farms near the dam produce organic waste that can settle on the bottom and cause eutrophication of the water. This leads to massive fish mortality and impacts other organisms in the reservoir. Upstream productive activities also deteriorate water quality through fertilizers and pesticides.

    INTRODUCTION

    The environmental problems of Prado Tolima are


    produced by man, in which nature is harmed in favor of
    economic activities. Environmental pollution is very
    important because it affects a large part of the
    population. The intervention that the human being has
    had in the environment has generated changes in
    different aspects of the planet.

    METHOD

    The reservoir is being operated according to the protocols for


    rainy seasons.

    *Taking into account the Environmental Management Plan


    and is monitoring the flows that enter.

    Cascada del amor *The reservoir together with the Secretariat of Prado
    Planning, Fire, Civil Defense, Cortolima and National Police.
    RESULTS
    Taken from: Google imágenes
    In the Prado Dam we observed aquaculture
    cultivations of Silver Tilapia or silver mojarra in
    floating cages; the biological implications of the
    production of waste from this activity on native
    fauna and flora should focus on:

    Benthic enrichment: fecal waste rich in organic


    matter. Laguna encantada

    Eutrophication: Accumulation of organic waste,


    which causes the proliferation of certain algae. CONCLUSIONS

    *Massive mortality of fish and other organisms in
