Golden Algae Lake Conditions Update

Preliminary test results show low levels of golden algae (prymnesium parvum) in Canyon Lake, which may be contributing to the brownish tint recently observed in the water. Golden algae can produce toxins that affect organisms with gills. In humans, however, the potential health risks are generally milder and may include irritation, respiratory problems, and digestive issues (this occurs by ingesting water or algal blooms). Additional water testing and fish toxicology results are in progress. Full results are expected by the end of May, with fish-specific findings coming in July. The lake is not closed, and we are still at green flag boating conditions.

As always, the Canyon Lake POA and EVMWD will continue to perform water quality testing prior to big holidays, including the upcoming Memorial Day weekend. We will continue to update the community as we receive updates and test results.

If you observe any dead fish, please do not dispose of them. Instead, contact the Canyon Lake POA's Operations Team at 951-244-6841 x510. Operations will coordinate with the Canyon Lake POA's Marine Patrol to collect and document locations and quantities for further analysis. For more information, visit our Lake Conditions page.

SERVICE REMINDERS

Lake Emergency Markers

Have you ever noticed the large letter signs that can be seen on the lake at several of the beaches and parks around the community? These letter signs are actually Emergency Locations Markers (ELMs) with latitude and longitude coordinates attached to them. The letters go from A to O. Residents who have an emergency on the lake can refer to the letter when they call 9-1-1. The Canyon Lake Fire Department references these letters so they can determine your location and provide assistance quicker. We recommend that all boaters have a copy of the Emergency Location Markers Map, which includes the physical address of each letter in the event that dispatch requests the address.
