The Effect of the
Decreasing Algae
Population on Utah's
Water Quality
A series of natural phenomena battered Utah last summer. Heat waves alone ruined
tons of crops, compromised the quality of air, and increased the growth of chenopods
and mold in most households. Despite these environmental challenges, the people of
Utah are grateful that one of their urgent environmental problems this year, the algal
bloom, is now waning.
The Spread of Green Algae
The green algae, which originated from the Utah Lake, spread rapidly to invade nearby
bodies of water. This contaminated water (from cyanobacteria and other toxins)
reportedly led to nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever, and headaches in residents.
City officials even warned patrons from using the water for any purpose, according to a
report from the Salt Lake Tribune. They later, however, downgraded the closure into a
warning. Afterwards, they advised residents to stay vigilant and report any indications of
blue-green algae presence by checking for changes in water color.
The Effect of Green Algae
Although algae is toxic to humans, algal blooms indicate warmer weather and higher
nutrient levels in the water area. The publicly announced Utah heat wave last June
coincided with the release of these toxins. To determine actual water quality, the
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) collected samples of Utah’s open water in July. The
results came back negative as the report showed low to zero concentration of toxins.
Continuing Vigilance
Despite the positive results, the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) erred on
the side of caution. They put up warning signs near the area of contamination given
that the problem may reappear at any time.
As of October 11, the last few samples taken by the DWQ at Utah Lake indicated
negligible cyanobacteria cell concentrations. This may be the last sample collection
unless the department receives reports of deteriorating water conditions.

The Effect of the Decreasing Algae Population on Utah's Water Quality

  • 1. Expert Plumbing, Heating, Air and Electrical http://expertplumbingutah.com The Effect of the Decreasing Algae Population on Utah's Water Quality
  • 2. A series of natural phenomena battered Utah last summer. Heat waves alone ruined tons of crops, compromised the quality of air, and increased the growth of chenopods and mold in most households. Despite these environmental challenges, the people of Utah are grateful that one of their urgent environmental problems this year, the algal bloom, is now waning. The Spread of Green Algae The green algae, which originated from the Utah Lake, spread rapidly to invade nearby bodies of water. This contaminated water (from cyanobacteria and other toxins) reportedly led to nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever, and headaches in residents. City officials even warned patrons from using the water for any purpose, according to a report from the Salt Lake Tribune. They later, however, downgraded the closure into a warning. Afterwards, they advised residents to stay vigilant and report any indications of blue-green algae presence by checking for changes in water color.
  • 3. The Effect of Green Algae Although algae is toxic to humans, algal blooms indicate warmer weather and higher nutrient levels in the water area. The publicly announced Utah heat wave last June coincided with the release of these toxins. To determine actual water quality, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) collected samples of Utah’s open water in July. The results came back negative as the report showed low to zero concentration of toxins. Continuing Vigilance Despite the positive results, the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) erred on the side of caution. They put up warning signs near the area of contamination given that the problem may reappear at any time. As of October 11, the last few samples taken by the DWQ at Utah Lake indicated negligible cyanobacteria cell concentrations. This may be the last sample collection unless the department receives reports of deteriorating water conditions.
