An algae bloom that has closed Lake Massapoag in Sharon for nearly two weeks appears to be contained and the lake may open to recreational activities later this week.
The lake, which was closed on July 15 due to a visible suspected cyanobacteria scum, according to the town s website, subsequently tested below danger levels in the most recent samples on Tuesday, July 20.
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health requires two rounds of samples below the guidelines level, a week apart, to rescind the advisory against recreational activities. That second advisory was scheduled for Tuesday, July 27, with results expected in on Wednesday, July 28. If the results again are safe, the lake could open on that day at the earliest.

The highly contagious Delta variant has become a major cause of concern in a Cape Cod community following a recent breakout of new COVID-19 infections.
There are now more than 430 active cases of COVID-19 in Provincetown as of Tuesday, July 27, more than triple the cases reported last week, most of which have been linked to the variant.
According to the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, genetic sequencing of initial samples associated with the recent COVID-19 cluster in Provincetown tested positive for the Delta variant.
However, health officials said that the total number of cases among vaccinated people in Massachusetts remains low, at 0.1 percent - or 5,166 cases out of over 4.3 million fully vaccinated residents.
