Webster Reservoir remains in a “Watch” advisory for blue-green algae

For the third straight week, Webster Reservoir remains in a “Watch” Advisory for blue-green algae according to the latest release received Friday, September 10th, by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) and the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks (KDWP).

With the continuation of warm/hot weather, there’s even more time to have fun at the lake.
A watch means that blue-green algae have been detected and a harmful algal bloom is present or likely to develop. People are encouraged to avoid areas of algae accumulation and keep pets and livestock away from the water.
