Default Iron as a solution

I thought there was a PhD Candidate who was doing research using vertical plastic tubes in Lake Nakamun to test the theory that the lack of iron in our waters was the reason for the Blue Green Algae on the prairies, where the same nutrient rich water in Ontario has none?

This was a news article last summer, but that seems to be the end of it.

Has anyone any information on what came out of that project?

Iron powder is relatively easy to obtain, and if you could swing back a lake like Pigeon, or St. Anne, I think you would find support for the idea.
