(KAIR)--Atchison's Warnock Lake is no longer considered a threat for blue green algae.
That word came Friday from the Kansas Deparment of Health and Environment.
The lake had most recently been placed under a watch status by the state health agency. That came after a period of the lake being placed under a warning status.
According to KDHE, the presence of blue green algae can prove harmful to both people, pets, and livestock.
