Avondale, Fernan lakes under health advisories
Public health advisories for Avondale and Fernan lakes were issued Monday.
The Panhandle Health District, in collaboration with the Idaho Department of Health & Welfare and Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, said recent water sampling by DEQ indicates the presence of cyanobacteria, also known as a harmful algal bloom, throughout both lakes and along the shorelines.
The public is urged to use caution when recreating in or near the water at Avondale and Fernan lakes if the appearance of a HAB is present.
