Visual assessments have indicated a possible bloom. Water tests and satellite imagery assessments are currently being conducted by the Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP). These toxic algae can cause serious health issues for humans and animals. If you see water that looks discolored or smells bad, stay away. For a full list of HAB sites in Nevada, go here.
