Public health advisory issued for Tenmile Lake

Sep 29, 2009 No Comments Print

Tenmile Lakes results show that blue-green blooms continue to be prevalent in varying areas of both North and South Tenmile Lakes and that both recreational and drinking water posting guidelines were exceeded.

In addition, given varying effectiveness of home-owner drinking water treatment systems and the prevalence of toxic blooms, I would advise against utilizing lake water for potable purposes at this time.

Note that the station in Coleman Arm (station “Z”) had an MSAE level exceeding 1 million cells/ml.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
