Blue-green algae advisories lifted

Recent weather has cooled lake and reservoir water temperatures to such an extent that cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) is no longer a health concern, including in three bodies of water in the South Zone, which had previously been placed under cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) advisories.

Effective immediately, Alberta Health Services has lifted the cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) advisories for:

• Carolside Campground

• Blood Indian Park Campground

• Enchant Municipal Park

As always, visitors and residents are reminded to never drink or cook with untreated water directly from any recreational body of water, at any time.
