Microcystin: Microcystin: 0.16micrograms per liter (µg/L).Microcystin: 2.5 micrograms per liter (µg/L).The Warning Advisory for Utah Lake remains in place. Cyanobacteria cell-count concentrations are pending from PhycoTech, with the exception of samples collected on October 15, 2019, from Lincoln Marina that exceeded the recreation health-based threshold for a Warning AdvisoryĪ Warning Advisory indicates a moderate relative probability of acute health risk, cell-count density of 20,000 – 10 million cells per milliliter (cells/ml), microcystin levels of 4-2,000 micrograms per liter (µg/L), or anatoxin-a levels above non-detect. Anatoxin-a and microcystin levels for all other samples collected on October 15, 2019, and October 21, 2019, were below the advisory threshold. Toxin test results from the Utah Public Health Lab (UPHL) for samples collected by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on October 15, 2019, and October 21, 2019, at Utah Lake showed that the samples collected on October 15 at the Vineyard Buoy and the samples collected on October 21, 2019, in the middle of Provo Bay exceeded the recreation health-based threshold for a Warning Advisory for anatoxin-a. Microcystin: 2.8 micrograms per liter (µg/L).Sample Type: Elbow-depth integrated composite sample.Hunters and fishers should clean waterfowl and fish well and discard all guts.” Data Summary Vineyard Buoy Recreators are advised to stay out of the water and avoid any contact with water or scum if they suspect a harmful algal bloom. It’s important to recognize the signs of a bloom and take appropriate precautions. HABs can persist throughout the fall and winter and can pose a potential threat to humans and pets. The close of the monitoring season and removal of advisories doesn’t mean HABs are no longer present. The Utah Department of Health and local health departments have determined that the health risk from HABs from primary contact recreation drops with the onset of colder temperatures. The HABs monitoring season ended on October 31, 2019. Toxin test results from the Utah Public Health Lab (UPHL) for samples collected by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on October 28, 2019, at three locations on Utah Lake were below the recreation health-based threshold for a Warning Advisory for anatoxin-a and microcystin. The Utah CountyHealth Department (UCHD) has removed the Warning Advisory for Utah Lake.
