Blue-green algae advisory
for Pelican Lake (Pleasant Valley and Ninette Beaches)

If large amounts of green scum are visible in the water it is advisable to take the following precautions: • Avoid swimming or other contact with the water. • Do not drink the water (boiling or chlorination will not make the water safe). • Prevent pets or livestock from drinking the water along the shoreline, as this could be fatal to animals. • Do not eat fish that appear unhealthy.
