Public health advisory issued for Tenmile Lake

Sep 18, 2009 No Comments Print

Cyanobacteria toxin and cell density for Tenmile Lakes on Sep 8th and 15th. A public health advisory is issued by the Oregon Department of Human Services.

The results show that blue-green blooms are prevalent in varying areas of both North and South Tenmile Lakes and that both cell density and microcystin toxin results exceed guidelines for recreation posting.

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 his time.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
