(KNZA)--A health advisory, issued for a local lake due to the presence of blue-green algae, has been downgraded.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment, in a release Thursday, said the advisory for the Brown State Fishing Lake, located northeast of Robinson, has been downgraded from “ warning” to “ watch” status.
Also under “ watch” status is Horton's Mission Lake.
During the watch status, KDHE recommends people avoid areas of algae accumulation, and keep pets and livestock away from the water.
You should clean fish well with potable water and eat the fillet portion only.
