🚨 Harmful Algal Bloom Precaution – Cullaby Lake 🚨

A Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) has been reported at Cullaby Lake due to the presence of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae).

👉 Test results show toxin levels are below the recreational guideline for humans but above the guideline for dogs, according to Oregon.gov.

💡 What you need to know:

🐾 Keep pets out of the water – Dogs and other animals are especially vulnerable.

🚫 Avoid swimming or water activities in areas where the water looks discolored, scummy, or like pea soup.

👀 Watch for signs of a bloom – Discolored water, surface scum, or pea-soup appearance.

📞 Report illnesses – If you or your pet experience symptoms after water contact, call the Oregon Health Authority at 971-673-0482.

📍 Background:

HABs are caused by rapid growth of cyanobacteria, which can produce harmful toxins.

Cullaby Lake is a popular recreation spot in Clatsop County.

The Oregon Health Authority monitors and provides guidance on HABs.

⚠️ Stay alert, protect your pets, and be cautious around affected areas of Cullaby Lake.

***In case your mind is wondering like ours was for the correct usage of Algae versus Algal:(Harmful Algal Bloom -HAB).

Algal = adjective (describing the bloom as being caused by algae).

Algae = noun (the organisms themselves).
