EX11 BC Algae Watch

Fresh

Interior Health publishes advisories and beach guidance rather than data; if you want the observation records rather than the warning, this is the provincial map behind them. Observations are reports, not measurements: presence of a bloom, not a toxin concentration.

What it contains, and where it is
Provincial observation map for algae blooms, including cyanobacteria, where the public and agencies log blooms as they are seen. Where reported Okanagan blooms actually appear.
