Caution, blue green algae may be present at Four Springs Lake

Testing has revealed that blue green algae may be present in Four Springs Lake. Further sampling will be undertaken to identify if the algae is toxic.

As a precaution anglers should not drink from the lake, avoid unnecessary contact with the water and wash and cook fish thoroughly before consumption.
