BLUE-GREEN ALGAE BLOOM ADVISORY

LAC LA NONNE & PEANUT LAKE

A blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) bloom has been identified in areas of Lac La Nonne and Peanut Lake. Residents living near the shores of these lakes, as well as visitors to these lakes, are advised to take the following precautions:

Avoid all contact with blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) blooms. If contact occurs, wash with tap water as soon as possible.
Do not swim or wade (or allow your pets to swim or wade) in any areas where blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) is visible.
Do not feed whole fish or fish trimmings from this lake to your pets.
Consider limiting human consumption of whole fish and fish trimmings from this lake, as it is known that fish may store toxins in their liver.

If you suspect a problem related to blue-green algae or if you require further information on health concerns and blue-green algae, please call Health Link at 811.

Additional information is also available online, at www.ahs.ca/bga.
