Summary
Greenwater Solutions is spraying nanobubbles into Washington’s Reflecting Pool in a new attempt to curb a spreading green algae layer.
The treatment follows complaints that the decorative pool’s structural and cosmetic problems have worsened over time and resisted easier fixes.
Donald Trump has made the pool a public focus in recent weeks, touting its size and blaming the failed lining on saboteurs, Barack Obama and the media.
The 1923 pool, built to showcase national monuments, has become a visible symbol of broader disputes over maintenance, spending and management in the capital.
