MAYVILLE – Harmful Algal Blooms<\/strong> \u2013 or HABs \u2013 are once again becoming a problem in some areas of Chautauqua Lake<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

On Friday the County Department of Health and Human Services<\/strong> announced it had documented HABs in areas of the south basin of Chautauqua Lake, including Celoron and near the Interstate 86 bridge over the lake.<\/p>\n

Lakewood Village Beach<\/strong> was closed for swimming early last week due to the presence of blue-green algae, but was re-opened Thursday once testing showed that toxin levels had diminished.<\/p>\n

Officials say HAB conditions can change rapidly. Those using lakes where an active bloom is present should use caution and not ingest the water.<\/p>\n
