Public can check algae toxin levels via Web page

From The Daily Standard:

Users of Grand Lake now have a Web site to check on algae toxin levels in the lake.

The page was created by the Ohio EPA and is available at www.epa.state.oh.us/pic/glsm_algae.html.  There are several links to the sampling data, fact sheets, news releases and other information, Ohio EPA spokeswoman Dina Pierce said.

The EPA will update the algae toxin levels as they receive new information, probably about every two weeks, she said.

The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) and Celina Water Treatment Plant officials will collaborate to test the lake water for the algae toxin the rest of the recreation season and forward the information to Ohio EPA for posting on the Web site.

Right before Memorial Day weekend . . .
