NH LAKES says the season is off to a very bad start for cyanobacteria.
Cyanobacteria blooms have become a growing concern on Danforth Pond and many waterbodies across New Hampshire. On June 10, state specialist Amanda McQuaid will explain what might be done to address the issue.
Be cautious of lake water that has a surface scum, changes colors, or appears to have green streaks or blue-green flecks aggregating along the shore.
Green Mountain Conservation Group will hold a public Zoom meeting tomorrow, October 8, at 7 p.m., to share proactive steps that waterfront property owners can take to reduce the likelihood of cyanobacteria blooms.
A resident of Danforth Pond reported an apparent patch of cynobacteria today, causing the state to issue an alert. A state official will investigate tomorrow to determine whether to escalate the alert to a warning.
