Harmful algal bloom found in Hebgen Lake : vimarsana.com

NorthWestern Energy monitors six locations around the reservoir for algal blooms weekly, said spokesperson Jo Dee Black.
Results returned on Tuesday confirmed the bloom, which is in the northeast area of the lake near the Grayling Arm area, is harmful.
Warmer water temperatures and a lower-than-normal water level is causing more algal growth earlier in the season than in a typical year, Black said.
Often blooms will emerge in mid to late-August. The Grayling Arm bloom is the first harmful bloom on the lake this year.
“Temperature, nutrients and stillness in the air are all factors that support harmful algal bloom growth,” said Hannah Reidl, a water quality specialist with the Montana Department of Environmental Quality.
