Nov 4, 2022 | 1:32 PM

Alberta Health Services (AHS) says recent weather has cooled lake and reservoir water temperatures to such an extent that blue-green algae is no longer a health concern in the region.

Officials say this includes 11 bodies of water in the Central Zone, which had previously been placed under blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) bloom advisories.

Effective immediately, Alberta Health Services has lifted the blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) bloom advisories for:
