Public Health lifts danger advisory at Vancouver Lake after water quality improves

0Comments

Clark County Public Health has lifted its advisory at Vancouver Lake.  Water samples collected from the lake show water quality has improved  over the last two weeks and toxin levels

are no longer elevated.

While harmful algal blooms have recently dissipated, Public Health  encourages people who are recreating in Vancouver Lake to watch for  floating scum and avoid direct contact with

water in those areas.  Harmful algal blooms can return if conditions change.

Danger advisories remain in place at Lacamas and Round lakes. Water  samples collected this week show improving water quality. Public Health  will collect water samples again next

week, and if toxin levels remain  below thresholds recommended by the state Department of Health, Public  Health will lift the advisories at Lacamas and Round lakes.
