Advisory
An increased risk of a cyanobacteria bloom has made this area potentially unsafe for water contact. Cyanobacteria blooms are also known as “blue-green algae blooms” or “harmful algae blooms (HABs)”.
Be alert and avoid skin contact with water that:
Looks like spilled paint
Has surface scums or films
Is discolored or has colored streaks
Has green globs floating below the surface.
Keep children and pets away from cyanobacteria blooms and rinse off any exposed skin or fur with clean water.
