S1E18: 1.18 - Explaining Algae & E. Coli in our Lakes and Reservoirs - July 23, 2021

from Colorado Outdoors - the Podcast for Colorado Parks and Wildlife

In this episode of Colorado Outdoors we explain how we test for and respond to algae blooms and the presence of E. coli - both of which naturally occur - in our water system. Mindi May is CPW's Water Quality Coordinator and Scott Roush is the Deputy Regional Manager for the Northeast Region - they both share their knowledge on water quality and keeping people (and your dogs) safe while recreating on the water.

What this episode covers

Summer is the time of year when many folks are enjoying spending time on the water, but it is also the time of year when algae blooms or E. coli can cause closures of popular areas like swim beaches. We explain them both in this episode.
