The City of Guthrie Public Works department has received the latest tests back regarding the Blue Green Algae Bloom at Liberty Lake. These most recent results show toxin levels to be lower than Practical Quantity Limits (PQL), which means regular lake activities may resume. The City of Guthrie will continue to evaluate the water at Liberty Lake to verify that algae levels are remaining in a safe range.
There is always algae in water sources, but the continued monitoring will determine if larger algae blooms occur. If levels rise again to an unsafe measurement, limitations on lake activities will be reinstated until the algae bloom runs its course.
Thank you for your patience as the City of Guthrie works to provide safe recreational activities for both residents and visitors.
The City of Guthrie Water Plant is still pulling 100% of drinking water from Guthrie Lake at this time.
