Toxin Alert at Hebgen Reservoir | Bozeman News
Description
Hebgen Reservoir has issued a health advisory after detecting Anatoxin-A, a dangerous toxin linked to harmful algal blooms, in the Corey Springs area of the Grayling Arm. Levels at 2.12 micrograms per liter — while low — are enough to trigger a warning, prompting signs and public outreach from Northwestern Energy and agencies. Though blue-green algae blooms are common in Montana’s waters and not all are hazardous, shallow areas pose a risk to kids and pets. Beach closures would be triggered if levels hit 8 micrograms per liter. No illnesses have been reported yet, but if you or your pet show symptoms, seek medical help and report it. Monitoring continues.
