Blue-Green Algae in Recreational Water- Management Strategy
The newly released strategy has been added to our 'News' section on our website.
Please read through the document, and take note of the risks and precautions, however the bottom line is: 'Waters will remain open for secondary contact users (use), however precautions are urged to limit the health risks associated with blue-green algae'
