Possible Harmful Algal Blooms on South Fork Shenandoah River

Today, June 26, 2024, when visiting FOSR’s Summer E. coli Testing Site FPM13 Moody public boat launch at Mile 13 on the South Fork of the Shenandoah River in Page County, VA., we observed possible harmful algal blooms and filamentous algae. We submitted a report to VA Dept. of Health and VA Dept. of Environmental Quality. Please visit the link below for information and precautions related to HABs.
