Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) has been observed by Idaho DEQ in the Maiden Rock area of Spirit Lake.
At this time it appears to very light, not the thick blue/green surface slime we saw last year.
This is a toxin producing algae and precautions should be taken not to swim or allow pets to swim in areas that appear to be contaminated with algae.
Updates and links will be posted as they are received from DEQ.
