Algae Blooms have been identified at Buckboard Marina and Firehole Beach on Flaming Gorge Reservoir. Do not swim in or come into contact with green water, floating scums or clumps. Do not ingest water from a bloom. Boiling, filters and other treatments will not make the water safe. Rinse fish with clean water and eat only the fillet portion. Avoid water spray from a bloom. Do not allow pets or livestock to drink near a bloom, eat bloom material, or lick fur after contact. Blooms float on or just below the water surface or leave a blue-green paste on the shoreline and can turn the water green or look like threads, clumps, scums and spilled paint. If you or your pet get sick after water contact or ingestion, call your doctor or veterinarian. For more information and to check on the advisory status, visit WyoHCBs.org.
